Every other month, Boston provides artists in need with small grants of $1000.

There are a few categories for these grants, artist support, money for teachers to take children on field trips, event organizers, there are a lot of ways you can tap the city for cash via the Opportunity Fund.

Boston Hassle/Brain Arts as well as a few volunteers for the organization have received the same grant.

The Harvard Ed Portal in Allston will be hosting a free info session on the grant. This will include a light supper and some time to network. BONUS: The city’s arts council is focusing on Allston/Brighton artists for their grant giving this round, so if you are an Allston/Brighton artist or are collaborating with one, now is the time to learn and apply!
