Abstract:
The Cuyahoga Arts & Culture board closed 2024 by approving funds that will be regranted to more artists than in previous years.
At its Wednesday meeting, the board set aside $500,000 for Assembly for the Arts, the agency administering CAC money for individual artists as CAC can only grant to nonprofit organizations. The funds come from a tax on cigarettes, which voters approved increasing last month.
Last year, $375,000 supported 73 artists and was administered by Assembly. In 2025, $450,000 is slated for 176 artists.
