  • About Project Mesquite: stART grant

    The Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona’s stART to Heal Grant for Creatives provides individuals, collectives, and co-ops awards funds through two alternate tracks of support:  

    • The Community Impact track provides financial support to individuals and groups for projects that will positively impact a community through an artistic endeavor.  
    • The Artist Development track provides financial support to creatives for whom a specific, practice-related capital resource or professional development experience will make an impact on their artistic practice.  

    Implicit in Arts Foundation’s vision is a desire for diverse artists and arts organizations within the region to be able to engage in their craft without having to struggle economically.
