Investing in research, analysis, and communications to build awareness, engagement, and public demand for strong arts policies and financing


We recognize that galvanizing public support is a critical component for expanding equity across the arts field. To support this foundational development, the Arts + Creativity Team prioritizes:

  • Investing in support of innovative media platforms, forums, and other ways of broadening public awareness of and engagement in arts and creativity.
  • Investing in research, policy analysis, and communications to inform equitable policy development and long-term financing options for arts and creativity across the diverse communities in Massachusetts.
  • Supporting the development of leaders, cross-sector networks, and coalitions that effectively communicate the value of the creative sector, and increase its visibility.

Grantmaking Inquiries

The Arts + Creativity program is currently undergoing a strategic refresh to align grantmaking efforts with the evolving needs of the sector.

During this time, we are not accepting inquiries for new grant proposals so that we can focus on supporting our current grantees.
