The Westport Cultural Council will give priority to grant requests that:

- Take place on the South Coast, or promote local creative talent or cultural resources.
- Have a measurable impact on the Westport community, by reaching a significant number of Westport residents, whether immediately, or over time.
- Engage, and help bring together, Westport's varied communities, or introduce Westport residents to new or different cultural perspectives.
- Do not duplicate existing programs or funding.
All applications that intend to work with the Westport Community Schools or another cultural organization must include a letter of support from the participating partner. All applications must be submitted online. Check the local papers announcing information sessions for grantees who have questions about the grant process or wish to discuss grant ideas with the council.
