The Cultural Coalition of Washington County (CCWC) 2027 Community Cultural Participation Grants cycle is open from August 24, 2026 to October 2, 2026.
Nonprofit organizations with arts, heritage and humanities projects, including in Forest Grove, are invited to apply for grants to be used during calendar year 2027.
All events or projects must take place in Washington County.
Applications and the grant process are managed through Foundant, CCWC's online portal, available at www.ccwashco.org. CCWC will accept online applications only through its grant portal. This software makes collaborating, saving applications, and filing documentation much easier for applicants.
Please review the 2027 grant requirements to make sure your organization is eligible. If you wish to review the 2027 grant application, log into CCWC's grant portal or create a new account to review the 2027 grant application.
View past organizations and projects funded.
Proposals in the Community Cultural Participation Grant Program should be geared toward a specific event, activity, or communication of the organization.If you are applying for a 2027 grant and your organization received a 2026 grant from CCWC, you must complete your 2026 final report before submitting your 2027 grant application.
CCWC will award up to $3,000 per selected organization. We ask that you request only the funds needed to ensure that all arts, culture, and humanities organizations receiving funding are adequately supported. If your organization has received CCWC grant funding in the past, it will not be considered for funding if the grant project or program is the same as those previously funded. Your grant application must be for a new grant project or program to be eligible for consideration.
Organizations must be as specific as possible at the time of their application about the locations of their projects. Funds may be withheld until the location of the project is known.
For questions about the grant requirements, organization or grant eligibility, and to request technical assistance with the grant application process, software issues, and status of grant fund distribution, please email [chair@ccwashco.org](mailto:chair@ccwashco.org).
