Art & Culture Grants
2024 Art & Culture Grant
The 2024 Art & Culture Grant Application goes Live on Wednesday, November 8, 2023!
This year PCF will accept new applications as well as offer grants to returning organizations. We will continue to use a streamlined process that will minimize the amount of time and effort for applicants to qualify for funding. The application has been modified. Only new applicants will go through a pilot panel process. There will be no site visits. PCF staff and panelists will review the applications. Grant amounts will be determined through the use of a modified funding formula that takes into consideration the operating budget of the organization.
Applications for the 2024 grant cycle (1-yr general operating grant) are open only to organizations that have an Average Budget of $1.5M or less as shown on their current SMU|DataArts Philadelphia Cultural Fund (PCF) Funder Report. Use the documents below as tools to guide you through the application process.
How to Apply
- All applications are completed and submitted online in Submittable, PCF’s grant management system. No hard copies will be accepted. Applications can be worked on over time and saved as a draft after each session.
- You will need to create a free Submittable account or sign in with Google or Facebook credentials to apply. Important: The login email used to apply, will be the primary account holder for this application and will receive all communications through the platform.
