Louisiana Division of the Arts works in partnership with 9 Regional Arts Councils (RACs) throughout the state enabling the exchange of resources, information and opportunities.
Part of this partnership includes the administration of the Louisiana Project Grants (LPG) Program, which allows for the funding of arts projects throughout the state to be informed by both local priorities and current state cultural initiatives. RACs can find LPG administration resources here. Below is a chart with links to each of our 9 RAC partners.
