Grants are available for arts programming of high artistic merit conducted by not-for-profit organizations in Illinois. The Illinois Arts Council (IAC) is supportive of programs which eliminate attitudinal barriers relating to the creative capabilities of those with physical, mental or emotional challenges. Funds are available for activities occurring between September 1, 2004 and August 31, 2005.

ARTS SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS
Organizations whose primary mission is to provide services to the arts community have separate guidelines and application process. An arts service organization is defined as an organization which provides specialized services to the arts and cultural community. Refer to the Art Service Organizations section for more information.
