APS grants provide general public access to educational opportunities where Indiana citizens of all ages can learn about and experience different art forms and participate in arts activities.

Award: Max: $7,500
Deadline: April 7, 2010

The Mini-Grants program offers support for new and existing arts activities produced or presented by non-profit organizations in the counties of Adams, Blackford, Delaware, Fayette, Grant, Henry, Jay, Madison, Randolph, Rush, Union and Wayne.
