Funding Priorities

Documentation of other funding resources in the application budget will help you compete more successfully. Submit an original plus (9) nine copies of application materials to: South Hadley Cultural Council, South Hadley Library, 27 Bardwell Street, South Hadley, 01075.
Local Guidelines
Application forms may be obtained online or at the South Hadley Public Library during regularly scheduled hours. Average grants tend to be modest ($200-500). Considerations include community benefit, how the project will engage South Hadley residents, financial need, project quality, seriousness of artistic intent, evidence of ability to carry through the project, and clarity of the proposal. Answer ALL questions clearly and completely and provide supporting materials, if available. An original plus 9 copies of the application is required. Contact one of the Council members listed on the town website if you have questions about the application process.
