Council Priorities

Amount Available for Granting in FY 2021

$7,613

All applications must be completed online.

Priority will be given to programs that take Covid precautions into account while still providing as much accessibility as possible. With regard to virtual programs, applicants should be aware that Town residents do not yet have Broadband access, though it is expected to be available in 2021. Programs proposed to take place at a Chesterfield venue must be accompanied by a letter from a representative of that venue reflecting a commitment to host the project. Further, our decisions will take into account any letter of support from a Chesterfield resident.

The Council will seek to achieve a balance between funding well-established previously funded projects and new ones. We will also look for programs that reach different age groups.

We request that you note other Local Cultural Councils from which funding is being requested and specify dollar amounts being sought.

An online application will be available October 1.
