Established as a state agency in 1965, the Missouri Arts Council is a division of the Office of the Lieutenant Governor. The Council is funded through the Missouri General Assembly, Missouri Cultural Trust, and National Endowment for the Arts.
The Missouri Arts Council is the state agency dedicated—as public leader, partner, and catalyst—to broadening the growth, availability, and appreciation of the arts in Missouri and fostering the diversity, vitality, and excellence of Missouri’s communities, economy, and cultural heritage. The grants we award make possible quality arts programming to communities both large and small throughout the state. We provide grants to arts projects that meet our strategic goals:
In addition to funding, we provide technical assistance in community development, fundraising, marketing, grant writing, arts education, artistic disciplines (visual arts, music, literature, theater, dance, festivals, and film/media) and more.
Express Grants
Express Grants are designed to encourage small and emerging arts organizations and organizations based in rural communities to seek financial assistance for arts activities.
Express Grants are designed for first-time applicants to Missouri Arts Council or smaller budget projects. They have a simpler application, more flexible deadline schedule, and quicker turnaround. The funding is smaller and corresponds with an easier application process. Also, Express Grants receive a higher amount of their request amount (ranging 60-100%) based on their average score. For example, an organization that requests $2,500 may receive a grant for $1,500 or more for an acceptable project scoring 60%. Higher scores would receive proportionally more funding.
Express Grants include the following programs: Arts Council Basic; Arts Education; Big Yellow School Bus; Organizations of Color; Project; and Touring – Community or School
Touring – Community
Supports hiring artists on MAC’s Missouri Touring Performers Directory to perform in the community
