The Scituate Cultural Council (SCC) is part of the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s(MCC) Local Cultural Council Program-the largest grassroots cultural funding networkin the nation. Each year, the MCC distributes funds to the SCC, which grants thesefunds to local individuals, schools and organizations in support of arts, humanities, and interpretive science projects for the benefit of Scituate residents.
The SCC is comprised of volunteers appointed by the Scituate Selectmen and are responsible for reviewing grant applications and awarding monies. Grant awards range each year but provide substantial funding to a wide range of cultural endeavors.
The SCC partnered with the Town of Scituate, the Scituate Harbor Business Association, and the Scituate Arts Association in spearheading a successful application process to obtain Cultural District designation for Scituate Harbor, and the SCC willcontinue to support the Scituate Harbor Cultural District. If you want to be part of this exciting group, check out the Town’s webpage for more information.
