The South Florida Cultural Consortium, an alliance of the arts councils of Broward, Martin, Miami-Dade, Monroe and Palm Beach Counties grants visual and media artists with awards at either the $15,000 or $7,500 level. These awards are among the largest such honors accorded by local arts agencies to visual and media artists in the United States. Established 1988, the SFCC has awarded over $4 million in grants to more than 300 artists. In addition to receiving the grant, the artists take part in an exhibition hosted and organized by a visual arts institution in one of the five counties. For more information about the South Florida Cultural Consortium, please visit here. https://bit.ly/4cVLzGc

The South Florida Cultural Consortium is funded in part with support from The National Endowment of the Arts, The Florida Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs and the Florida Arts Council, the Boards of County Commissioners of Broward, Miami-Dade, Martin and Monroe Counties, and the Cultural Council for Palm Beach County.

Calling all artists and business owners: The Martin County Art in Public Places (AIPP) program invites you to unleash your creative vision through the Martin Murals Program! 🎨✨

Visit www.martin.fl.us/AIPP for more details on the Martin Murals Program, including program requirements and the application process. Let's paint a brighter future for Martin County together!

Friday night with Joanna Lee Kilgore and the Motherhood Project, an amazing display exploring the journey of women through the lens of motherhood.

Florida recently vetoed ALL state funding for the arts. For Martin County organizations alone, this represents over $500,000 that will now not be granted.
Key facts to consider:
> $9 goes into the local economy for every $1 invested in Arts & Culture by Florida.
> Martin County is home to over 526 arts-related businesses.
> Over 620,000 Martin County residents and tourists participate annually in arts and culture activities.
