The Minnesota Microgrant Partnership, administered by The Arc Minnesota and supported by the Department of Human Services – Disability Services Division, directs funds to self-advocacy groups and organizations working toward community inclusion for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This is not a conventional arts grant; it is a targeted intervention into the structural barriers that constrain daily life and civic participation. The grant recognizes that cultural and creative work often intersects with advocacy, and that artists and creative practitioners may be embedded in or lead such groups. The grant prioritizes projects that address one of five specified categories: decreasing barriers to workforce participation, overcoming barriers to accessible and reliable transportation, identifying and addressing barriers to voting, advocating for increased accessible housing, and working with governmental agencies or businesses on accessibility issues under the Americans with Disabilities Act. These categories reflect a curatorial vision rooted in material change rather than representation alone. The grant does not prescribe artistic outcomes; it funds the work of inclusion itself. There is no application fee. The grant is open to self-advocacy groups and organizations, not individual artists unless they are applying through such a group. The deadline is exact: June 1, 2027. Awards are intended to support projects that are aligned with the stated categories. The Arc Minnesota’s role is administrative and supportive, ensuring that funds reach the groups best positioned to effect change within their communities.
