Funding Priorities

The following criteria must be satisfied for a proposed project to be funded:

1. The project must address local needs benefiting the Andover community.
2. The applicant must have a specific artist, date and venue.
3. The project must satisfy ADA (American with Disabilities Act) requirements.
4. The project budget must be balanced and realistic.
5. The project must be able to proceed with partial funding.

For each proposal that meets the above criteria we at the Council ask the following questions to further assess the project's merit:

1. How does the project foster community involvement and support?
2. Describe the diversity of your artists and target audience (age, culture, ethnic background and artistic discipline).
3. What is the size of the intended audience?
4. What educational value does the project bring to the audience?
5. Describe all collaborations between schools, cultural groups and/or community organizations?
6. Is this the first request for funding? (New projects receive higher preference.)
7. What are the qualifications of the applicant or performer?

For PASS grant applications:

1. Grants will be awarded only to school groups.
2. We do not fund transportation for PASS grants.
