OAC Awards $310,000 in Arts Learning Grants To 31 Organizations Statewide
Thirty-one Oregon arts organizations will receive $10,000 grants to strengthen K-12 arts education during the 2026 fiscal year.
According to the Oregon Arts Commission, the awards are part of a $310,000 investment from the OAC's Arts Learning grant program. Every funded project is a collaboration with local schools and communities across Oregon.
Two recipients of the grant funding include the Rogue Valley Art Association in Medford, in support of the Elementary Arts Outreach serving up to 900 5th graders in Jackson County schools, and the Illinois Valley Community Development Organization in Cave Junction, supporting RiverStar's dance and theatre education for youth ages 5-18 in rural Illinois Valley and Josephine County.
These projects foster the sharing of knowledge between artists and educators and positively impact the achievement, skills, and attitudes of learners.
