The purpose of the CBAC Mini Grant is to support vibrant, community-based art projects that fall outside the scope of our standard grant cycles. This initiative is designed to provide flexible, year-round support for creative endeavors that directly engage and benefit our local communities.

Eligible projects are those that activate public spaces, foster artistic collaboration, and bring people together through the arts. This can include, but is not limited to:
• Pop-up art installations or exhibitions in community spaces
• Neighborhood mural projects or community sculpture gardens
• Interactive performance series in local parks or venues
• Workshops or creative gatherings that build artistic skills within a community group
• Artistic projects that celebrate or respond to a specific local need or event

Any individual artist or collective residing in Ashland or Bayfield County with a project idea that serves the public is encouraged to apply. We welcome proposals from professional and amateur artists alike.

Applications are awarded year round, on a case-by case basis, and a submission of application is subject to approval, and does not guarantee acceptance.
