FY25 Local Art Program (LAP) Grants

The Local Art Program (LAP) Grants, funded by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts and administered by Mercer County Cultural & Heritage Division, aim to support the local arts community in Mercer County, New Jersey. The grants are designed to foster the growth and public accessibility of diverse, high-quality community arts organizations and projects. Two types of support are available: Special Project Support (SP) for specific arts activities and General Operating Support (GOS) for the regular operations of arts-focused nonprofits. The grant encourages applications that reflect the county’s ethnic diversity and promote community participation. Grant renewed every year.
