Summary
This grant opportunity is designed to increase student access to cultural learning experiences by supporting educational trips and excursions that engage youth in the arts, culture, and heritage. The primary goal is to enrich classroom learning with out-of-school cultural opportunities that foster creativity, cultural understanding, and artistic appreciation. These excursions are intended to provide meaningful, hands-on experiences that connect students with local artists, cultural institutions, and diverse traditions.
Funding is available to nonprofit organizations and educational entities located within a specific U.S. state. This opportunity is open to eligible applicants operating in Alaska, with a focus on programs serving PreK–12 students. Organizations must demonstrate a clear educational objective and a partnership with artists, cultural groups, or creative venues that can offer impactful experiences for participating students.
Eligible uses of funds include transportation, admission costs, artist fees, materials, and other direct expenses necessary to facilitate student participation in the cultural activity. Projects must be designed to enhance learning outcomes and demonstrate alignment with academic goals or curriculum content. Programs that prioritize underserved students or rural schools are strongly encouraged to apply.
Grant awards are modest and intended to support short-term or one-time activities such as museum visits, performing arts performances, cultural festivals, or workshops led by local artists. Funding is awarded on a rolling basis throughout the year, subject to availability. Applicants are required to submit a brief proposal outlining the purpose, expected outcomes, and budget of the excursion.
This funding opportunity is ideal for educators and youth program leaders seeking to expand access to cultural enrichment and deepen student engagement with the arts and heritage in their community.
