The Arlington Cultural Council (ACC) receives an annual allotment of grant monies from the Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC) to distribute locally. The ACC is committed to funding a diverse cross-section of activities that support a broad variety of art forms, ongoing work of individual artists, projects serving specific local populations and local cultural organizations. Meetings are held once a month and are open to the public. Members of the Council are volunteers appointed by the Arlington Select Board for up to two consecutive three-year terms. They consist of artists, arts administrators and other community members with an interest in the arts, humanities and interpretive sciences. Grant applications are due by midnight, October 15, or, if that date falls on a weekend, the next business day. Determinations are made in December for projects beginning in January.
