Spark! Youth Arts Fund

Spark! is a dynamic funding initiative designed to fuel the artistic dreams of Lunenburg County's youth. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to explore their creativity and develop their artistic talents, regardless of financial limitations.

Spark! Fosters a Cycle of Giving

We are committed to building a vibrant arts community in Lunenburg County. One unique aspect of Spark! is our focus on youth giving back. Funds raised through student performances or teacher recitals can be donated back to Spark!, creating a sustainable cycle of support for future generations of young artists.


How to Apply for a Spark! Grant

Lunenburg County youth can apply for a Spark! grant with the recommendation of their arts teacher. Applications are reviewed based on financial need and artistic merit. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until funds are depleted. For more information please contact us at sparkyouthartsfund@gmail.com
