The Audeville Society’s
Artist Grants
Our Artist Grants were established to support artists creating small-budget productions in New England.
In a region renowned for its rich cultural heritage, the struggle for emerging & small-budget productions to secure financial backing is a persistent challenge. Recognizing this gap, our grants fund was conceived as an effort to empower artists & amplify their voices. The fund identifies promising projects that embody innovation, diversity, & a commitment to pushing artistic boundaries.
One of our key strengths lies in our unwavering dedication to inclusivity. Our grants endeavor to create a more equitable & representative cultural landscape. Furthermore, we embrace a broad definition of "performance," encompassing not only traditional theater but also experimental works, immersive experiences, & interdisciplinary collaborations.

2024 Artist Grant Recipient
“The Audeville Society is a large part of how I got to where I am now as an entertainer and headliner in Provincetown, MA. Creating art is hard. It is even harder with the economy right now and living in a pretty remote resort town. Receiving grant money from the Audeville Society has truly transformed my brand in remarkable ways. It has allowed me to collaborate with top-tier designers in wigs, costumes, and marketing, elevating the entire aesthetic for my shows.”
Artist Grant Applications
Applications Now Closed
With amazing speed, we had a number of grant applicants flow in soon after we filled our coffer with the proceeds from The Revelry Ball. As such, our cups have once again runneth dry.
Grants Available
Because performances happen year-round, we do not run on a traditional “grants cycle” with set deadlines. Instead, we offer our grants on a first-come, first-served basis. Once our coffers run dry, we no longer offer new grants. We also don’t offer a set number of grants and instead give out money until we run out for the year. And, obviously, not everyone who applies will be guaranteed a grant - but if we require more information before making a decision, we will inquire.
If you have ANY questions about the grant application or granting process, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us through our contact page.
