The TCA Arts Create program provides operational support funding to established art organizations and college level art institutions for advancing the creative economy of Texas. Eligible organizations must be positively impacting their surrounding communities by providing a public service, education, outreach, or economic development that involves impactful arts-based practice. Five program categories are offered to target various capacity organizations, minority arts organizations, and local government agencies. The significance of this funding for creative placemaking lies in its flexibility around eligible organizations and impact of projects.
