Opportunity for arts organizations: Arts in Corrections RFP

The California Arts Council is currently seeking proposals from arts organizations interested in providing arts programming to inmates at state adult correctional facilities through the agency's Arts in Corrections program. The Request for Proposals (RFP) aims to contract with Coordinating Organizations in order to further diversify the art disciplines and increase the number of current programs available based on the needs of the institutions. Learn more in our latest press release.
