Calling all Fairhaven artists, musicians, performers, educators, and creators! The Fairhaven Cultural Council is now accepting proposals for projects that enrich the cultural lives of Fairhaven residents. Successful applicants will receive grant funding to help realize their projects.
Applications are open from September 2 through October 16. They are online only and are accessible via the Mass Cultural Council’s website: https://massculturalcouncil.org/local-council/fairhaven/.
