Milagro Artist Fund

Milagro Artist Fund

For the fourth year in a row, Milagro returns with the Milagro Artist Fund! In February of 2022, the Board of Directors approved a resolution to create a special fund to support Oregon artists or groups working on projects in any creative discipline. We can’t wait to see what amazing projects Milagro can support this year!

The Fund will award $500 to $2,000 in project grants to artists in Oregon and SW Washington that uplift Latino arts and culture.

Apply Today!
