The Cultural Fund Grant Program was designed to be responsive to the ever-changing funding climate within the arts community and the dynamic needs of a diverse Evanston community. To ensure that the arts continue to be an integral part of the lives of all Evanstonians, the City of Evanston strongly encourages the development of broader participation by Evanston’s diverse cultural community.

By providing financial assistance to not-for-profit arts organizations, the Cultural Fund supports artistic excellence throughout the community. The Evanston Cultural Fund Grant Program is administered by the Cultural Arts Division, a division of the City of Evanston's Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department and the Evanston Arts Council. The Cultural Fund is supported by the City of Evanston and partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency.
