The grant supports specific projects or provides operational support within the fiscal year. Organizations can also apply for supplemental funding in the areas of Arts Education, Rural Arts Access, Professional Development, and Folk and Traditional Arts.

The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
