Welcome to Mid-America Arts Alliance’s events calendar, where you’ll find workshops, grants, and other opportunities for artists and arts organizations in M-AAA’s six-state region of Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, and beyond.
The National Endowment for the Arts, in partnership with Mid-America Arts Alliance, has released guidelines and application materials for the Creative Forces Community Engagement grant program, part of the Creative Forces®: NEA Military Healing Arts Network. Grants support non-clinical, community-based arts engagement programming for military and veteran populations, including family members and caregivers.
Deadline: Applications must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. CST on Wednesday, January 15, 2025.
Since 2017, Creative Forces has invested $2.3MM in community-based arts engagement activities that take place in healthcare, community, or virtual settings. Creative Forces Community Engagement projects address the distinct experiences, challenges, and strengths of a broad military-connected population through experiences of art or art-making.
