Grants in the Arts
The Washington Post believes that basic arts literacy is as vital to a young person's education as basic skills in reading, writing and arithmetic. The Grants in the Arts program provides funds for arts education activities which enrich the standard curriculum, provide exposure to the visual and performing arts for all students, and encourage creativity and the development of interpreting and critical thinking skills. Selections of the grants averaging $300 are made by a committee of educators and arts community leaders.
The deadline for Grants in the Arts applications is in October of each year. Please return to this page soon to download the brochure/application for the 2008-2009 program.
For more information, please call The Post's Public Relations department at (202) 334-7969.
