North to Shore Music Festival is not only bringing great entertainment to Asbury Park, Atlantic City, and Newark, but the Festival is also recognizing talented small businesses, creators, artists, producers, and more in those cities with a grant.
North to Shore will award Community Arts Grants of up to $5,000 to artists, producers, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations based in Asbury Park, Atlantic City, and Newark to self-produce events during North to Shore’s festival week that will take place in their city. Grantees will be chosen by a committee of local arts and culture leaders from each city—your neighbors and peers! Between 15 and 20 grants will be awarded in each city.
