Ready to be rewarded for your creativity? Applications are now open for 2023 Statewide Community Regrants to fund your community arts project idea.

The Statewide Community Regrants (SCR) program program supports arts and cultural programming and the creation of new artworks in Erie, Niagara, and Chautauqua counties. It is administered yearly by ASI and funded by the New York State Council on the Arts.

Any nonprofit organization, government entity/municipality, tribal organization, or individual in Erie, Niagara, or Chautauqua counties is eligible to apply for up to $5,000 in funding.

NEW FOR 2023 – Applicants are no longer required to come up with a 50% match in income. Applicants can apply for 100% of their project’s cost up to the grant max.

Also, new for 2023 – we will have two grant deadlines in an effort to support even more applicants! The first deadline will be December 5, 2022 and the second on May 26, 2023.
