The School of Arts & Culture at the Mexican Heritage Plaza (SOAC), an Administering Organization of the California Arts Council, has announced the opening of the California Arts Council Administrators of Color Fellowship program.

Reopening resources added to CAC COVID-19 webpage
After following state and local public health guidelines, some arts venues and events may be seeking specific tools as they plan ahead for possibly reopening. The California Arts Council COVID-19 News & Resources page has a newly added "Reopening" section to aid in guiding arts organizations and venues on how to resume operations safely and in consideration of both patrons and staff. Click here to visit the COVID-19 New & Resources webpage.
Federal funds still available to support small businesses
Funds are still available from the federal Paycheck Protection Program, designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll during the pandemic. The loan period has been extended from eight to 24 weeks, with more than $130 billion in forgivable loans still available. Applications are due by June 30.
The Federal Reserve has also announced that it is establishing a Main Street Lending Program to support lending to small and medium-sized businesses that were in sound financial condition before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Companies with fewer than 15,000 employees are now eligible to apply. Details on the loan, forms, and agreements can be found here when the program is operational.
Grants for arts participation by people with disabilities
Applications are open now for cycle two of the California Arts Council's Arts and Accessibility grant program, offering support to artists with disabilities and organizations enhancing arts and culture opportunities for people with disabilities. Direct funding for artists is available through this grant. The program is administered in partnership with the National Arts and Disability Center at UCLA. Click here to learn more.
