The mission of the Bronx Cultural Vision Fund (BCVF) is to support the live performing arts scene in the Bronx by funding the development of new concepts and the production of new work, emphasizing projects by Bronx-based individual artists, collectives, and nonprofit arts organizations in theater, music, dance, or multidisciplinary forms. BCVF aims to make significant investments in the borough’s performing arts community, developing long-term relationships with grantees.
Arts on the Block is a grassroots initiative designed to provide small grants of up to $1,500 for artist fees at block parties and single block festivals, supporting a variety of performers to enhance event attendance. It aims to assist small local organizations and block associations, with a preference for those new to applying for BCA grants.
