Announcing Upstate California Creative Corps, a newly launched grant program which places artists in service to communities across nineteen counties in Northern California — and makes it possible for them to get paid for their creative work.

This outreach and engagement campaign is designed to increase awareness around environmental issues such as water and energy conservation, climate mitigation, and emergency preparedness, relief, and recovery — in addition to fostering civic engagement, social justice and public health.

The Ink People, in partnership with Humboldt Arts Council, will be providing support to grant applicants (YOU!) throughout the application process! Keep an eye out for our upcoming announcement regarding office hours and workshops to help with grant writing.

Applicants may apply in one of three grant categories:

* Individual Artists and Culture Bearers ($5,000-$30,000)

* Community Residencies $15,000-$150,000)

* Regional or Multi-County Coalitions (up to $250,000)
