Applications Available August 9 Applications for FY2014 grants will be available on August 9. Over the past 25 years, the CCAA has awarded over $500,000 in grant funding to schools and organizations in Charles County for projects in the performing, visual, and literary arts. This has helped enhance our county’s culture and inspire its residents to explore the diverse arts community present in its own backyard. There are two types of grants: Arts in Education for schools, and Community Arts Development for non-profit organizations. Some examples are arts services, children’s events, dance, folk arts and heritage, literature, media, and music. Organizations seeking funding may obtain applications online at www.charlescountyarts.org or by contacting the CCAA Office at 301-392-5900, on or after August 9. A mandatory workshop for organizations seeking a CAD General Operating or Special Project Grant will be held on Wednesday, August 28, from 7:00 – 9:00 pm at the United Way Building in La Plata. Contact the CCAA Office at 301-392-5900 or info@charlescountyarts.org to sign up for this class.
