2022 Annual Arts Grants
2022 ARTS GRANTS ANNOUNCED
The Idaho Commission on the Arts announces its Fiscal Year 2022 annual grants, totaling $578,000 to 100 organizations and schools spanning 25 communities throughout the state. Organizations and schools receiving grants will match their awards with locally generated funds.
Executive Director Michael Faison expressed appreciation to Idaho’s elected leaders for their support of the Commission’s statewide services. “We are grateful to Governor Little and the Idaho Legislature for their dedication to Idahoans’ rich artistic heritage. Through these grants and the programs they support, Idahoans of all ages in every region gain access to their cultural legacies and Idaho students enjoy creative learning opportunities in and out of school.”
In announcing the grants, Idaho Commission on the Arts Chair Steve Allred said, “These arts organizations contribute to the economic vitality of towns and cities across Idaho. Arts and cultural production in Idaho accounts for $2 billion and 2.4% of our state economy and supports 21,371 jobs, 3,907 of them directly. Arts mean business.”
The list of 2022 annual grants follows.
