The Grants Program is our annual funding program which allows Federal 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organizations, units of government, schools, colleges, universities, and Indian tribal government entities to apply for funding for arts activities including exhibitions, publications, screenings, lectures, or performances in New Mexico. The program is intended to deliver on our mission of public support for the arts to ensure the arts are central to the lives of all New Mexicans.

We support programs that foster arts education, arts economic development; performing and visual arts, and contemporary and traditional folk arts in New Mexico.

New Mexico based organizations wishing to apply that are not one of the above may enter into a fiscal sponsorship with a nonprofit organization. If using a Fiscal Agent, a formal agreement between the agent and the applicant is required.
