At Creative Pinellas, we’re all about celebrating the power of the arts to bring people together and make life better.

From gallery shows and public art to festivals and performances, the arts play a big role in drawing visitors to the area—boosting local businesses and showcasing everything our vibrant community has to offer.
Arts Tourism Funding Program: Celebrating Pinellas County’s Creative Spirit Grant
Creative Pinellas is spearheading a transformative new arts tourism funding program designed to position Pinellas County as a premier cultural destination while strengthening its creative economy. On Tuesday, March 24, the Pinellas Board of County Commissioners approved the $500,000 program by unanimous vote. Creative Pinellas will direct the program, which is funded by Visit St. Pete-Clearwater (VSPC) with outreach and event support provided by St. Petersburg Arts Alliance and Clearwater Arts Alliance.
The inaugural program will fund a wide range of experiences created by artists and arts organizations selected through a competitive process. The experiences will shape a countywide, multi-week festival of the arts during Fall 2026 featuring performances, exhibitions, workshops, public art, and immersive cultural experiences across beaches, parks, downtown districts, and cultural venues. It is expected to reach an estimated 2.5 million visitors during that time.
This marks the first time Creative Pinellas has distributed arts funding to support not only individual artists and nonprofits, but also for-profit arts organizations.
Award Amounts and Frequency
- The panel plans to select approximately 20-30 arts experiences, totaling $350,000 to Individual Artists and Organizations. It is possible that more or fewer experiences will be selected. Another $50,000 is planned for those selected to provide opening and closing experiences for the month of the arts.
- The panel reviewing applications will be asked to fund in two categories: individuals and organizations.
- Individual Artists may apply for $5,000 to $15,000.
- Organizations may apply for $15,000 to $50,000.
- The panel predicts to select a very limited number of arts experiences at the higher funding levels.
- All applicants acknowledge that Creative Pinellas may offer funding at a different amount than applied for.
