The City recognizes the importance of arts and culture in creating a vibrant and healthy community reflecting the character of the city and its citizens. These assets should be shared, experienced, nurtured and supported so that all of El Paso citizens have an opportunity to experience first rate arts and culture programs.
One of the primary roles of the Museums and Cultural Affairs Department of the City of El Paso is to Implement a Cultural Funding Program to assist in the development of El Paso's creative sector, its artists and cultural organizations, and to support access to arts and cultural activities for El Paso residents and visitors alike.
The City of El Paso will award cultural services contracts through the following funding programs:
-
Operating Support Program (OSP): OSP is designed to support the organizational stability of El Paso's arts and cultural assets and to cultivate organizational growth and professional development. This category is open to organizations with a minimum of a three (3) year funding history from the Museums and Cultural Affairs Department (MCAD).
-
Project Support Program (PSP): PSP supports programs that provide high quality arts experiences that are innovative, accessible and appealing to local residents and visitors alike. Project support funds can be used for all project related expenses such as, administration, production costs, artistic fees, coordination (including staffing), audience development, outreach and marketing.
-
Community Arts Program (CAP): Provides funding for non-profit arts and cultural organizations and individual artists to provide a variety of arts and cultural activities that have a focus on arts education and community arts development. The program will create a roster of arts and culture providers available to provide services throughout the city. It is designed to encourage creative interaction among artists, residents and neighborhoods, as well as to encourage collaboration between artists and community-based organizations/services. (Please Visit Arts & Education for more Info)
-
Artist Incubator Program (AIP): This program promotes awareness of the contribution that El Paso artist make in our community. This program will provide funding directly to individual artists. Individuals funded through this program must provide a report at the conclusion of a program or event that includes attendance, location, an evaluation of the program, and financial statement.
