PURPOSE
The Ventura County Arts Council Arts-in-the-Classroom Mini-Grant Program, established in 2004, is to provide a source of support for the elementary schools to partner with local arts organizations and artists to bring standards based arts into K-5 classrooms. The funds may also be used to take a classroom to a Ventura County arts venue for an educational program. All funded programs must take place during the school day. No after school programs will be funded. This round of mini-grants will be awarded in the spring of 2013 to be used during the 2013-14 school year.
