Allied Arts Educational Outreach Grant

Allied Arts of Oklahoma's Educational Outreach program supports nonprofit arts organizations working to expand arts experiences to underserved, rural and at-risk K-12 students, and to broaden arts programming for veterans, hospitalized adults, developmentally disabled adults and beyond. Both Allied Arts member agencies and other nonprofit arts organizations are eligible. Organizations of all budget sizes may apply for up to $5,000 in cash grants (Hobby Lobby store gift cards may be available in addition to the cash maximum). To qualify for the grants program an applicant must provide quality arts/cultural programming, be a 501(c)(3) arts nonprofit operational for at least three years, have current financials and an active volunteer board, be headquartered in the central Oklahoma 10-county area (Oklahoma, Kingfisher, Logan, Lincoln, Seminole, Pottawatomie, Cleveland, McClain, Grady, Canadian), be registered as a charitable organization with the State of Oklahoma, and self-identify as Arts, Culture, and Humanities under the NTEE system.
