FESTIVAL & CULTURAL EVENT SUPPORT FUND

The 2024 Festival & Cultural Event Support Fund is Now Open

Over the years, an eclectic collection of festivals and cultural events have received grants from the BCTDA's Festival & Cultural Event Support Fund, ranging from time-honored traditions such as Shindig on the Green and Black Mountain's Sourwood Festival to cultural celebrations like the Blue Ridge Pride Festival and Grindfest. 

Buncombe County-based nonprofits and municipal partners can now apply online for 2024 event grants until 5 pm Friday, October 27. Awards will be announced during the November BCTDA Board meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 29. Grants will be disbursed after successful completion of each event in 2024.
