The Small Organization Sustainability Fund is managed by the City of Sacramento Office of Arts and Culture (OAC) and made possible by State and Local Partnership funds provided by the California Arts Council, administrative support provided by Sacramento County, and the City of Sacramento’s Measure U funding. The OAC has allocated a total of $100,000 with the aim of supporting small (no more than $25,000 in allowable annual revenue) nonprofit arts and cultural organizations throughout Sacramento County including its unincorporated regions.

Through a competitive award process, grants will be awarded to eligible applicants who demonstrate clear commitments to diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, meet standards of artistic and/or cultural contribution, and demonstrate successful organizational planning approaches. Award amounts may be up to $5,000 but cannot exceed 50% of an organization’s Total Adjusted Operating Revenue.
