Delaware County Arts Projects and Programs
The Roxbury Arts Group is pleased to offer two grant funding opportunities for artists and organizations in Delaware County. The annual Delaware County Arts Grants program and the new Restart New York Regrant program. Both grants fund artistic projects and programs of all disciplines that will take place in Delaware County. The Restart New York Regrant has an application deadline of September 30th at 4 pm and the Delaware County Arts Grants will have a deadline of November 17th, 2021 at 4 pm. The Roxbury Arts Group will begin presenting a series of Information Sessions, both in-person and online, to inform area artists, organizations, and residents about the funding opportunities available. Both grants are a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts and are administered locally by the Roxbury Arts Group. Samantha Nick, Grants & Community Coordinator for the Roxbury Arts Group, will present Grant Information Sessions from September to October detailing grant guidelines, provide an overview of the grant process, highlight past successful grant-funded projects, and provide tips for successful grant writing.

“The Delaware County Arts Grants program has supported arts programming to the county since 1986” says Samantha Nick, Grants & Community Coordinator for the Roxbury Arts Group. “We are very thankful for the way our grantees adapted during the pandemic and how they continue to use new skills during the virtual climate. We look forward to seeing how artist will work in new landscape, as we move forward into a new funding year.”
“During the past year we have seen how the arts have such a vital impact on our lives.” says Jenny Rosenzweig, Executive Director of the Roxbury Arts Group. “It is our hope that these grants will support the activities that our Delaware County communities and artists need as we work towards building our post COVID-19 lives together.”
