The Community Initiatives program is open to incorporated, tax exempt, 501c organizations residing in Austin or its Extra Territorial Jurisdiction. Individual artists and other unincorporated organizations may apply under the umbrella of a 501c organization. Project activities must involve the marketing, production, presentation, and funding of a public performance or exhibition open to both residents and tourists.
