Building on the historic Community Accelerator Grant program pilot in 2023, ArtsFund and the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation come together again to offer a second round of funding to Washington’s arts and cultural nonprofits.

In 2024, the program will distribute $10 million in unrestricted funding to organizations across Washington whose primary mission is to produce or support arts and culture activities. This second round of funding builds on the 2023 program, which provided a total of $10 million to 671 organizations and will continue to prioritize organizations that center BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and people with disabilities, and those located in rural communities.

ArtsFund and the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation recognize the deep impact of the cultural sector and have committed to this second year of funding in order to more deeply support organizations’ ability to invest in their missions and essential roles serving communities across Washington State.
