Brooklyn Arts Council

For nearly 60 years, Brooklyn Arts Council has stood alongside and resourced the artists, educators, and cultural workers who make our borough what it is. Through grants, creative learning programs, professional development, cultural heritage projects, and fiscal sponsorship, we help artists create, teach, and share their work within the communities they call home. Our work is rooted in equity and accessibility, ensuring that creativity isn’t a privilege but a shared resource that connects us all. Together, we’re nurturing and strengthening Brooklyn’s expansive creative spirit, where artists and neighbors thrive side by side.

When you support Brooklyn Arts Council, you help nurture the careers of independent artists who are working to bring accessible cultural programming to every corner of Brooklyn.
