The Artists Respond grant program provides direct funding to Connecticut artists to pursue community-based projects that use the arts to respond to social issues, current events, and community needs. Connecticut artists may apply for a grant of either $2,500, or $5,000 to support artist fees associated with project activities. 

Projects to occur in CT to address a range of social issues such as:
  • equity and racial justice;
  • community development;
  • empowerment of LGBTQ communities;
  • COVID-19/pandemic;
  • mental health;
  • and other artist-centered initiatives that use the arts to inspire, empower, educate, and transform our Connecticut communities.
The Artists Respond program aims to invest in a wide range of community-based projects from large audience events to small group activities. All activities must be ready to pivot, if necessary, to comply with the ever-changing social distancing measures implemented at the local, state and federal level as a result of COVID-19.
