Each year, through an application process, awards are made to eligible applicants to fund diverse programming that benefits the work of the individual artist, the creative process in the classroom, the programs of our cultural institutions, and aids in long-term planning for the greater Pasadena community. All applicants are given the opportunity to attend Technical Assistance Grant Writing workshops and Pasadena-based organizations may attend a Cultural Equity and Inclusion workshop.
