Grant program available to artists
The Durango Arts Center announces its new MicroGrants program, a funding program to support artists in La Plata, Archuleta, Montezuma, Dolores and San Juan counties.
The program distributes small but impactful funds to emerging and established artists, and is open to the center’s members and nonmembers. Artists must be currently living and creating work in one of the five counties surrounding Durango. Funding may be applied toward artistic needs depending on the proposal.
