LCC Program Information - About Your LCC

In awarding grants, the Leverett Cultural Council (LCC) gives priority to Leverett and surrounding area artists, humanists, scientists and cultural organizations, and to area events that will benefit the Leverett community as well as the individuals, organizations and groups who are awarded grants. The LCC especially encourages collaborative projects between cultural groups and community organizations. Applicants from surrounding communities may also be funded provided that the event benefits the citizens of Leverett.

In order to apply for an LCC grant, applicants must meet all eligibility and criteria requirements of the LCC Program.

For more detailed information, refer to the full LCC Program Guidelines (PDF).

Approximately one-third of our funding goes to school-based and field-trip grants, and one-third to events at the Leverett Public Library. Please note that field trip grants for transportation are limited because of limited funding. The final third of our grants are awarded to individuals and groups that provide cultural events and classes that benefit the citizens of Leverett. Classes with multiple meetings are especially desirable. Grantees are reimbursed at the end of the projects when their final paperwork is submitted. Applicants must apply online at Massachusetts Cultural Council. Where possible, applicants are asked to provide proof that their proposed venue is available and approved by the venue authority. Any questions please contact mulholland@anthro.umass.edu, or call Mitch Mulholland at 413-548-9161.

An online application will be available October 1.
