"As I meet and talk with constituents in this state, I believe the time has come to re-envision programs with the objective of better addressing the needs of our applicants and the communities they serve. This year we will be working closely with Governor Pritzker, legislators, our board and staff, and many of our cultural arts leaders and organizations across the state to make Illinois a national model for arts agencies in this country. Streamlining the General Operating Support process for Fiscal Year 2024 is the first step in allowing the agency to begin a thoughtful consideration of all our grant programs, processes, and how we serve and connect with all of Illinois' communities." - Nora Daley, Board Chair
Thank you for your patience during this time of transition and planning. Together, we will build a stronger creative and connected Illinois through the arts.
