The Casa Grande Arts & Culture Commission is stirring things up for the youth by rolling out its 2025 High School Clubs Mini-Grant Program. Aimed at high schoolers and home school programs in Casa Grande, the commission's program is all about pumping up local teens with the funds they need to get their artsy projects off the ground.
Eligible clubs can start submitting their proposals for how they'll use the grant to zhush up the arts and culture scene at their schools. The catch, if you can even call it that, is the January 22, 2025, by 5:00 p.m. deadline. If anyone's in need of some help with their applications or has a question, they can shoot a call over to Gloria Leija, Casa Grande City Clerk, at 520-421-8600, extension 1110.
The application itself is all-digital, because, let's face it, who uses paper anymore? Would-be grant recipients can find the form they need at the City of Casa Grande's official website. This is a golden opportunity for students with a knack for creativity to turn their ideas into something tangible and eye-catching.
The mini-grant program is part of the Commission’s broader push to nurture a vibrant cultural ecosystem in Casa Grande. "This initiative reflects the Commission’s commitment to fostering arts, culture, and creativity in the Casa Grande community," trumpeted a recent City of Casa Grande notification.
