Nonprofit arts and culture organizations including museums, as well as culturally specific organizations that produce arts and culture programs, services and events are eligible to apply. Up to 45 organizations will be awarded grants of $4,000 each for general operating support.

Arts Impact Grants are designed to help sustain Sonoma County’s creative and cultural nonprofits and to advance their impact in our community. Since 2021, this program has issued 194 awards reaching each district and more than 70 organizations.
