Plainfield Cultural Council
The Plainfield Cultural Council accepts applications for cultural and art events and projects that enhance and enrich through art and humanities. We receive funds from the Massachusetts Cultural council annually and the Council meets to review all eligible applications in the Fall. The funds are allocated based on the Massachusetts Cultural Council guidelines while considering projects that will enhance the lives of Plainfield residents.
