Use of Grant Money

The Medina County Arts Council does not provide funds for tangible property (i.e. paint, costumes, equipment, etc.) therefore grant applications should not request monies to purchase these types of items.
Appropriate requests include financial support for general operating expenses, or for special projects such as guest artists’ fees, play royalties, publicity, etc.
The funds must be used within the calendar year awarded (Jan. 1-Dec. 31).
