Decentralized Arts Funding Program
LOUISIANA DECENTRALIZED ARTS FUNDING PROGRAM
The Louisiana Division of the Arts Decentralized Arts Funding Program, initiated in 1994, and administered in cooperation with local arts agencies throughout the state, makes the arts available in all areas of the state by giving people in each parish the opportunity to develop arts programs that meet their local needs. Using the latest census figures for parish populations, the program allocated approximately fifty cents for each resident of the parish. These funds will be granted to applicant organizations in the parish which received the allocation. Applicants compete only against other organizations and individuals within their parish.
ARTS AND HUMANITIES COUNCIL OF SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA
The Council serves as a regranting agency for funds provided by the Louisiana Division of the Arts. The Arts and Humanities Council funds projects and arts organizations in the following parishes through the Decentralized Arts Funding (DAF) program: Allen, Beauregard, Calcasieu, Cameron, and Jefferson Davis. During the month of April, several workshops take place in Region 5. We encourage you to visit our web site for the date and location that best suits your organization.
