Mansfield Local Cultural Council Guidelines:
Grant awards typically range between $100 to $750. Larger awards are given on occasion. With funds being limited, grant
requests should not normally exceed 50% of the cost of the proposed project or activity. New or previously unsuccessful
applicants are encouraged to discuss their proposals with a council member before the deadline.
Proposals are evaluated by a municipally appointed panel of community representatives.
• Mansfield -based applicants are given preference.
• Criteria include artistic, humanistic or scientific quality, value to the community, quality of planning, community support
and/or involvement and track record of the applicant.
• The applicant's qualifications must be demonstrated, and if the applicant is not directly leading the activity (i.e., a
community agency is hiring an artist), then qualifications of the individual(s) leading the activity must also be described.
• Proposals from municipal entities must not request support for activities that should be or have been part of their budget.
• Enrichment projects utilizing outside professionals are allowed.
• Funded activities must lake place in physically accessible spaces.
• The Council will carefully scrutinize repeat requests; such proposals should include other sources of support to show the
project is not dependent solely on Council funding.
• The Council favorably rates proposals that are affordable to participants and provides an adequate public benefit to the
Mansfield community.
• Applicants may apply for grants for programs that take place during a 12 month window of eligibility from January 1
through December 31, 2019.
Support Materials:
Letters of support/commitment from sponsoring organizations are strongly encouraged. If an applicant states that he/she
will be working with or for another person, organization, or conducting the project in a specific facility, a letter of
commitment or support should be submitted with the application form online.
