Northfield Cultural Council
The Northfield Cultural Council aims to support a variety of programs, projects and events that benefit a broad range of our local community.
Some of our priorities in the grant review process include a focus on local groups, socially conscious groups, and on serving a variety of audiences including seniors to
children. Virtual and in-person accessibility is also a concern. We give consideration to these areas, but that does not mean any are a requirement to receiving a grant.

FY24 Local Priorities
Some of our priorities in the grant review process include a focus on local groups, socially conscious groups, and on serving a variety of audiences including seniors to
children. Virtual and in-person accessibility is also a concern. We give consideration to these areas, but that does not mean any are a requirement to receiving a grant.
FY24 Local Guidelines
We strive to fund as many approved applications at as high a level as possible. Having a limited budget means that this is not always achievable. In this case, we will, as needed, partially fund some projects. Please include your possible solutions if not fully funded.
Please make sure that your application is complete and legible. Depending on member availability and timeframe, we may be able to contact an applicant if questions arise, but we do not guarantee being able to do so.
If submitting applications via mail, please include 5 copies.
Per State of Massachusetts Open Meeting Laws, our meetings are open to the public. You are welcome to attend if you wish. Meeting agendas and times can be found at: https://www.northfieldma.gov/cultural-council or by contacting the Chair at: https://massculturalcouncil.org/local-council/northfield/
The phone number listed may remain the number at Town Hall, so email is the best way to make contact.
