Charlemont-Hawley Cultural Council
The Charlemont-Hawley Arts Council supports civic conversation, theater, art, music, and much more in our small hill towns. Our board is made up of members from both Charlemont and Hawley. We love having the opportunity to learn about and support local goings on.
Our local priorities include education and intergenerational activities. We give priority to individuals and activities located in our two-town area.

FY24 Local Priorities
The Charlemont-Hawley Arts Council welcomes applications from individuals and organizations that foster local arts and culture, particularly in our two-town area. We are politically neutral. We do not accept applications from businesses; we stick to individuals and non profits.
The Council requires that applicants line up their own venues; please make sure you have figured out where your project will take place before applying.
FY24 Local Guidelines
Our council prioritizes education, intergenerational programming, and live performance. We are particularly invested in supporting individuals and organizations located in, or connected to, our two towns.
