King County Cultural Organizations can now apply for three grants through one application

King County Cultural Organizations can now apply for three grants through one application.

Grants are for organizations who have suffered losses due to the pandemic or are seeking unrestricted funding to support their mission goals.

About the grants

Eligible organizations only need to fill out one application to be considered for funding from the following programs:

• 4Culture 2022 Sustained Support offering unrestricted funds to cover operating expenses such as salaries, rent, utilities, supplies, fees, or services.
• 4Culture Recovery Fund and the City of Seattle Office of Arts and Culture Recovery Fund for federally funded pandemic relief through the American Rescue Plan Act.

Apply here by Friday, November 5, 2021 at 5:00pm PDT.

Who can apply?

King County cultural organizations with a minimum three-year operating history should submit an application. Organizations of all budget sizes will be considered for 2022 Sustained Support.

4Culture and the Seattle Office of Arts and Culture will also consider organizations with 2019 revenue of $1 million or below for Recovery Funds. To receive these funds, you must have experienced a drop in revenue from 2019 to 2020 due to the pandemic. Please read the guidelines for more details on eligibility and criteria.

Note: if you are a cultural organization with pre-pandemic revenue of more than $1 million, please refer to King County's Revive and Thrive Together program for federal COVID relief funds. If you're not sure where to apply, start with our screening tool.
