Announcing Our 2025 Microgrant Recipients!
We’re excited to introduce the 26 artists selected for the 2025 cohort of our Artists Microgrant Program. Each of these visionary creators reflects the depth, diversity, and imagination that make San Bernardino County such an amazing place to live and create.
Through this program, artists receive direct funding to bring to life projects that spark community connection, celebrate cultural storytelling, and inspire creative innovation. From murals to music, poetry to performance, these artists remind us how creativity builds bridges—and how local art shapes the heartbeat of the place we call home.
What began in 2019 with just five $500 grants has now grown to distributing over $15,000 each year. Thanks to the continued partnership of @usbank and other generous supporters, this initiative keeps expanding opportunities for artists whose work uplifts and enriches our shared cultural landscape.
We’re deeply grateful to @usbank for believing in the power of artists to strengthen communities and for helping us continue to grow a creative future for San Bernardino County.
