Apply for a grant.

Have a creative idea that will benefit the Sterling community? The Sterling Cultural Council awards grants to individuals, schools, and organizations for projects in the arts, humanities, and sciences. We encourage applications that celebrate local culture, foster learning, and bring people together.

The application process is managed through the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s online system, and the deadline to apply is October 15 each year.
Projects must take place in the calendar year following the application deadline.

Before applying, please review the statewide guidelines and Sterling’s local priorities and requirements. Funding is competitive, so make sure your proposal clearly outlines the public benefit to the Sterling community.
