Maggie McIntosh School Arts Fund FY26

Purpose

During the 2022 Legislative Session, the Maryland General Assembly established the Maggie McIntosh School Arts Fund for the purpose of expanding arts programs for students in Baltimore City Public Schools. This grant program is intended to be administered by Arts Every Day, a non-profit organization.

Arts Every Day serves as a strategic partner to the Baltimore City Public Schools in advancing equitable access to the arts and implementing the 2018 Fine Arts Strategic Plan. The organization provides teachers with professional development, arts integration technical assistance, and funding for student art experiences, school-based public art projects, art equipment, and supplies. The success of the work relies on vibrant partnerships with district leaders, schools, educators, parents, students, artists, community, and cultural organizations.
