WILLIAMSBURG – The Williamsburg Area Arts Commission is accepting applications for fiscal year 2026 funding.
Area arts and cultural organizations who are registered as tax-exempt non-profits are eligible to apply for special projects or general operating support.
The deadline for submissions is 4 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 1, 2024.
All details, including the WAAC application, grant guidelines and criteria, can be found online.
“The arts — performing and visual — are our eyes into our own culture. They show us and tell us who we are and let us see ourselves through the experience and expression of the artists and performers,” said Thomas Phelps, WAAC chair.
Phelps continued, “Programs supported by the WAAC grants have a tremendous impact on our community, for they allow us not only to participate in our own culture, they allow us to share it with others at the various events and exhibitions supported by the City and James City County.”
The WAAC is funded in partnership by the City of Williamsburg and James City County, plus a state grant from the Virginia Commission for the Arts. WAAC serves at the pleasure of the City and James City County in supporting excellence in the arts as it administers a grant application program for non- profit arts organizations.
