The Attleboro Cultural Council gathers input from the community yearly and develops funding priorities based on this feedback. This year the Attleboro Cultural Council will give priority to:
• Applicants that have already secured a local venue and date
• Projects that serve the residents of Attleboro
• It is a priority that grant reimbursements are funded as quickly as possible following the project date with minimal support from the ACC. Any grants not submitted for reimbursement within one year from the date of the approval notification will have their funds forfeited, which is in line with the LCC guidelines.
• Projects that focus on culture, education, compassion, arts, science, and nature
In addition to the state criteria applications will be evaluated using the following review criteria:
• How well the program meets our local priorities
• Community support and involvement
• Evidence of track record and dedication of the applicant
• Ability to address the diverse cultural needs of a community's underserved populations or support diverse forms of cultural activities
• Financial need
• Demonstrated planning
• Transportation/bus costs, administration, or fundraising expenses will not be funded with grant monies unless there are extenuating circumstances, which are clearly explained in the grant application
• Programs that have been previously funded with ACC funds should clearly identify past levels of Attleboro resident participation
• Projects must clearly indicate how grant monies will be spent if there will also be door receipts
• Letters of Recommendation from either the host or previous audiences/participants
