HADLEY -- September 17, 2025, Hadley Cultural Council holds public tutorial on grant applications ahead of October 16 deadline. The council, meeting at the Hadley Public Library, walked residents through the Massachusetts Cultural Council website and its online Grants Management System as part of an outreach effort to attract first-time applicants who are not professional artists or arts organizations. The council's allotment for the 2025-2026 grant year is $5,700, down from roughly $7,000 in prior years, with individual grants typically ranging from $100 to $600; this cycle's awards will be issued as reimbursement grants paid after project completion. Council priorities favor ADA-compliant programs that serve Hadley residents, including elderly, low-income, and underrepresented populations. Residents can reach the council at hadleyculturalcouncil@gmail.com; applications are due October 16, 2025.
