LAKELAND, FL — The Lakeland Mayor's Council on the Arts is now accepting grant applications to assist in funding for art and cultural related organizations, a city news release said.

The application is open only to non-profit members of the Lakeland arts community within the Lakeland city limits.

The city said each application will be scored on a summary of core arts/cultural programming, financial history and program successes.

The primary mission of the LMCA Grant is the enhancement, promotion and support of Lakeland’s arts community and its associated creative economy. Artistic enterprises headquartered within the Lakeland city limits are eligible to apply for funding through this process.

Depending on the number of award recipients and total funds available, individual grant awards will consist of up to 5% of each organization’s prior year operating expenses.
