Tolland Cultural Council Is Accepting Applications: Deadline October 15th

Our Mission: The mission of the Tolland Cultural Council is to bring quality cultural programs to the residents in the Town of Tolland and surrounding communities. The TCC works with local groups such as the Tolland Library, Fire Department, Police Department and the Council on Aging to coordinate events of interest to these groups as well as the general public. The council aims to serve all demographics that reside in the town and we always appreciate feedback and suggestions for current and future programs.

Tolland Cultural Council Funding Priorities:

We are welcoming proposals that have a multi-generational appeal for our small community - proposals from local artists, projects promoting science literacy including local environmental issues, proposals serving youths, and collaborative projects between cultural groups and community organizations.

Additionally, new applicants or projects, art forms or humanities that are underrepresented in the community and/or proposals showing a match of cash or in-kind services to the cash requested of your LCC are among our priorities.

Tolland Cultural Council Additional Guidelines:

If possible, applicants should partner with a local town committee or group in order to perform their program in Tolland. Examples of local partners are the Town Library, Council on Aging, Fire Department, Police Department, Conservation Commission, and other local community groups. When partnering with a local town committee or group, the applicant shall work with such committee/group to determine a location for the program to take place as well as a date and time.

There may be exceptions where a local partner is not required; however, it is strongly recommended.

Field Trips- The TCC will accept and fund field trips via the standard grant application. Field trip funds can be used to cover travel costs to a field trip.

Funding Information:

There is no limit to the dollar amount awarded to any one applicant. The budget will be reviewed by the committee, and if we feel that it is a worthwhile event/project for the community, the TCC will fully fund or partially fund the project.

If the decision is made to partially fund a proposal, the TCC will verify with the individual/group that the event can be successfully completed.

The TCC does not limit the number of years any one applicant can come back consecutively for funding for the same or similar project or program. If it is a worthwhile program for the community, and the TCC receives feedback that the project or program is worthwhile, then it is left to the voting mechanism of the TCC to decide whether the project or program may be held again.

An online application will be available October 1.
