The Montague Cultural Council aims to increase the cultural vitality of our town by supporting activities that enrich the lives of residents of its five villages: Turners Falls, Millers Falls, Montague Center, Montague City, and Lake Pleasant.
Our Council is participating in the new system which no longer requires the reimbursement process. Instead, grant money is available in full once projects are approved and proper paperwork is submitted by grantees. If you are awarded a grant, you will be required to submit a final report to the Local Cultural Council upon completion of your program. Please read the LCC Program Guidelines and our Montague Council Guidlines and Priorities before you apply.
The Montague Cultural Council is a group of volunteers who are appointed by the Selectboard for 3-year terms. Our primary task is to distribute funds that are allocated to our town in the state budget for cultural programs. The 2024 allocation is $16,600. The deadline is October 17, 2023.
The Cultural Council welcomes new members! We encourage you to come to a few meetings and get a feeling for what the work is like before you apply. When you are ready, send a letter of interest to us by email to culturalcouncil@montague-ma.gov
We will let the Selectboard know of your interest, since they are responsible for making the appointments.
