Feeling creative? Apply for a MCC grant

The Marblehead Cultural Council is now accepting applications for the 2025 calendar year.

Each year, the MCC, which is funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, gives thousands of dollars to people and nonprofits that support community cultural, artistic, scientific and historical activities.

The MCC has funded everything from live performances and art installations to murals and field trips. All projects must benefit Marblehead residents.

“We hope to see this process result in many meaningful and inspirational projects in and around our beautiful town,” said MCC Chair Jennifer Uhl. 

In 2024, the MCC awarded $7,800 to 11 recipients.

Anyone interested can submit their online applications at massculturalcouncil.org/communities.local-cultural-council-program/application-process.
