Meet Manhattan's Arts Council
Through grants, residencies, presentation opportunities, and arts programs for the public we work each day realize a vibrant, resilient, and inclusive arts ecosystem in New York City.

Residencies & Grants
Our arts service programs include residencies, grants, workshops, and professional training for artists from all disciplines and practices.
