The Arts Vitality Fund is designed to support creative projects with artists and arts and culture organizations to enhance South Salt Lake’s values. Applications will open for the Arts Vitality Fund in January 2027.
Fueling your vision, Defining our city
“Don’t think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it, while they are deciding, make even more art.” - Andy Warhol
The City of South Salt Lake is not a blank canvas, it has a distinct industrial soul and a vibrant, diverse pulse. The Arts Vitality Fund exists to amplify that character through your eyes, the artists’ eyes.
We are inviting artists, makers, and performers to propose projects that are uniquely yours. We aren’t telling you what to create; we are providing the support you need to bring your own original ideas to life. Whether it’s a mural, a pop-up performance, a sculpture, or a cultural community experience, we want to see how your artistic voice interprets our city’s identity.
The Grant: We are awarding $1,000 – $3,000 to artists ready to make a tangible impact. The only rule? Your work must be presented or displayed in South Salt Lake.
Our Goal: To elevate the voices of our community and celebrate the uniqueness that sets South Salt Lake apart. We provide the funding; you provide the vision.
Does Your Project Align with South Salt Lake Arts? We are looking for work that embodies our core values:
- Uniqueness: Does your project celebrate the distinct grit and creativity of South Salt Lake?
- Impact: Will your work leave a lasting impression on those who see it?
- Elevate: Does your idea offer diverse cultural perspectives and give voice to the underrepresented?
