Building for Equity
Building for Equity is part of a joint initiative between 4Culture, Executive Dow Constantine, and the King County Council that will support cultural building projects and create a pathway to racial equity in our facilities funding.
About the Program
Building for Equity is a new model for our long-running Cultural Facilities grant program which provides a unique combination of funding, technical support, and strategic partnerships.
Who is this Program For?
Communities that have historically faced barriers to purchasing and stewarding cultural space are at the center of this program. Building for Equity is modeling a new facilities funding program aimed to create pathways toward a racially equitable cultural landscape throughout all corners of King County.More ›
