ABC grants available through Arts & Culture Alliance applications open
April 4, 2022

Awards from $500 to $3,500 available for arts projects

The Tennessee Arts Commission announces availability of the Arts Build Communities (ABC) grants for East Tennessee arts projects and programs taking place August 16, 2022 through June 15, 2023. The funding, administered by the Arts & Culture Alliance of Greater Knoxville, provides vital financial support for projects that broaden access to arts experiences, address community quality of life issues through the arts, or enhance the sustainability of asset-based cultural enterprises.

The ABC grants will be distributed throughout all arts disciplines as recognized by the Tennessee Arts Commission, including dance, music, opera/musical theatre, theatre, visual arts, design arts, crafts, photography, media arts, literature, interdisciplinary and folk arts.






ABC grants are available through the Arts & Culture Alliance for eligible organizations in Anderson, Blount, Campbell, Knox, Loudon, Monroe, Morgan, Roane, Scott, Sevier, and Union counties. Applicants must be state-recognized, nonprofit 501(c)3 organizations or government entities and must be able to provide a dollar-for-dollar match toward the proposed project.

Awards range from $500 to $3,500.

The online application deadline is 11:59 PM (CST) on Friday, July 1, 2022. A free grant workshop for interested applicants will be held on Thursday, May 12, from 3:30-4:30 PM. Please RSVP and/or direct any questions to Suzanne Cada at sc@knoxalliance.com or (865) 523-7543.






Interested applicants may view grant guidelines and find more information by visiting the Tennessee Arts Commission’s website.

The ABC Grant Program leverages local dollars in communities served. In FY21, $288,243 in ABC grants resulted in $1.06 million in additional investments with the vast majority leveraged by private contributions and earned income. A total of 190,078 individuals benefited from ABC activities, including 45,858 youth. An estimated 2,260 volunteers contributed 57,880 hours to these projects. The ABC program is funded by the Tennessee Arts Commission through Tennessee’s Specialty License Plate sales.
