Post Date:06/03/2026 1:40 PMThe O’Arts: Oceanside Arts & Culture Grant Program is now open for the third year of granting to local creatives and organizations to support activities throughout Oceanside. The Oceanside’s Arts Commission and Oceanside Cultural Arts District are matching funds to award $130,000 in grants this year.
Over the last two years, a quarter of a million dollars in grants were distributed in alignment with the City’s vision of supporting the cultural arts, and last year, 23 projects and programs were made possible. Projects brought broader awareness of the creative strength of Oceanside through high-quality dance, music, spoken word, comedy, visual art and theatrical performance.
