In a latest major round of civic funding for Chicago artists, Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events on Thursday announced $11 million in grants for nonprofit arts organizations, including via a new Chicago Arts Recovery Program. The money will be distributed two ways: $4.5 million will go to the new program, described in the announcement as aid for arts organizations in recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. And $6.5 million will fund the preexisting CityArts Program, which provides operating support “for nonprofits of all sizes and artistic disciplines.”“Nonprofit arts organizations are essential to the fabric of our city,” Lightfoot said in part in the announcement.
Additionally, new applications for Chicago Presents will open in February; DCASE will begin accepting ideas in April for the Neighborhood Access Program that supports community-based arts and culture activities; and the next round of the city’s Individual Artists Program will open in November with funding for practicing artists.
In the last couple of years, the city has rolled out a number of funding programs for Chicago artists and arts organizations that have been rocked by pandemic shutdowns,“Arts organizations across all disciplines are still reporting decreases in operating revenue because of the COVID-19 pandemic,” DCASE commissioner Erin Harkey said in Thursday’s announcement, with the goal of the programs being that “Chicago remains an innovative and thriving cultural hub.
