Cultural and Museum Grants Overview (General Program Support) Division of Cultural Affairs
265.286(3), Florida Statutes Chapter 1T-1.036, Florida Administrative Code
Cultural and Museum Grants support the general program activities of an organization that is engaged in conducting, creating, producing, presenting, staging, or sponsoring multiple cultural exhibits, performances, educational programs, or events during the grant period. General Program Support funding is not intended to fund indirect or overhead expenses.
Eligibility
Florida not-for-profit organizations engaging in cultural programming such as museums, local arts agencies, state service organizations, performing art centers, orchestras, dance companies, theater groups, and other discipline-based organizations to promote access, diversity and excellence in cultural activities are eligible to apply. The organization's mission must directly support arts and cultural programming.
A single organization may submit only one (1) General Program Support OR one (1) Specific Cultural Project grant application for each grant period. This restriction includes local governments and universities and local governments that share a Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) or tax ID.
Application and Ranking
Applications were submitted between April 1st and June 1st, 2015.
Eligible applications are ranked by panels of experts in more than 20 separate meetings organized by artistic discipline, i.e. visual arts, music, dance, theatre, museums.
Panels are appointed by the Secretary of State and typically include practicing artists, educators, patrons, arts administrators, museum professionals, board members, experts from national arts organizations, and qualified professionals in cultural disciplines.
Panelists use a rubric to score applications from 0 to 100, and applications must earn a minimum average score of 80 to be recommended for funding.
Panel recommendations are reported to the Florida Council on Arts and Culture, and applications recommended for funding by the Council are merged into one list ranked by average score. This list is submitted to the Secretary of State for review and approval, and the approved list is provided to the Legislature per Section 265.286, F.S.
Funding Source is General Revenue
If the list is fully funded, all grantees receive their full request amount; if the appropriation is less than the request, the award amounts are determined by a score-based formula that proportionally distributes the appropriation to all projects on the list.
Awards up to $150,000
Grantees must provide 1:1 match with up to 25% in-kind (donated goods or services); Rural Economic Development Initiative (REDI) applicants are not required to provide cash match but must show 50% match of in-kind goods or services.
The Grant Period will be July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017. All grant activities must be completed within the Grant Period, and all grant funds and match must be expended within the fiscal year appropriated.

Cultural Endowment Grants Overview Division of Cultural Affairs
265.606, Florida Statutes Chapter 1T-1.001, Florida Administrative Code
The Cultural Endowment Program is designed to create endowments by matching local funds with a State Matching Share. The interest that is generated on the investment is used for general operating support for the cultural organization.
Eligibility
Florida not-for-profit organizations engaging in cultural programming such as museums, local arts agencies, state service organizations, performing art centers, orchestras, dance companies, theater groups, and other discipline-based organizations to promote access, diversity and excellence in cultural activities are eligible to apply.
The not-for-profit must be designated a Cultural Sponsoring Organization (CSO). Not-for-profit status required for CSO designation will be verified by Division staff at the time of any State Matching Share (SMS) application, and again prior to the release of a SMS.
The CSO must have deposited eligible new contributions, totaling at least $360,000, into a cultural endowment program fund.
The CSO must not have been awarded a SMS within the 23-month period preceding this application. The 23-month period commences on the day following the date the previous SMS was awarded. (Note: A SMS is considered to have been awarded as of July 1 of the fiscal year for which the Florida Legislature appropriates sufficient funds for the Department to enter into an Agreement with an eligible organization.)
Application and Ranking
Applications for designation as a CSO may be submitted at any time. However, CSO designation is a criterion for eligibility to receive a SMS.
