ArtsFund Announces the 2026 Annual Allocations Grantees
In June 2026, ArtsFund awarded more than $2.5 million in Annual Allocations grants to 64 arts and cultural organizations across Washington. ArtsFund’s Annual Allocations grants are given as general operating support, allowing recipients to invest the funds where needed most to advance their missions. Annual Allocation operates on a three-year grant cycle, with the goal of reducing the burden on grantees and providing more consistent expectations for funding. This year, ArtsFund welcomed six new grantees to the Annual Allocations program: Cascadia Art Museum, Edmonds Center for the Arts, Indigenous Creatives Collective, Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture (MAC), Terrain Programs, and Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.
