LCC Program Information - About Your LCC

The Topsfield Cultural Council (TCC) promotes cultural activities in the Town of Topsfield. Massachusetts. Grants are awarded to individuals and organizations that sponsor and/or promote cultural activities through the arts, humanities and interpretive science with priority given to activities and programs that directly benefit the citizens of Topsfield. Due to the impact of the CoVid 19 pandemic and the increasing awareness of issues of racial equity, we will prioritize projects that address cultural diversity, its impact on cultural perspectives, and the creative ways our community is responding to the pandemic. All applications must be made online in accordance with the deadlines established by the Massachusetts Cultural Council. Previous grant recipients have offered artist workshops for all age groups; concerts on the Town Green and at the Council on Aging; historical presentations, as well as educational science programs, magic shows and various music genres scheduled at local elementary schools and the Topsfield Town Hall. In addition, financial support for programs was provided to the Northeast Massachusetts Youth Orchestra, the Town library, the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary and various programs for Masconomet Regional Middle and High School.
