The Fleishhacker Foundation’s Small Arts Grants program provides general, unrestricted support to small and mid-sized arts and culture organizations in San Francisco, Alameda, and Contra Costa counties that produce and present new work by professional Bay Area artists in the disciplines of dance, music, theater, visual arts, interdisciplinary arts, or film.
The program also provides post-production support for film projects directed by filmmakers who reside in these counties.
Applications are open to the following:
Arts and culture nonprofit organizations and fiscally sponsored groups with annual operating expense budgets under $500,000 that meet the eligibility criteria below; and
Film projects with budgets under $750,000 that meet the eligibility criteria in the For Filmmakers section below.
