The Brighton Urban Renewal Authority (BURA) is now accepting applications for two grant programs designed to support investment and vitality in Brighton’s downtown urban renewal area: the Brighton Hearts the Arts Rental Assistance Grant and the Façade Improvement Grant for 2026.

The program has a total program budget is $25,000 for FY 2026 that provides rental assistance to qualifying artists and arts-focused organizations. Grant funding is available on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to eligibility and approval. Applicants may request funding for up to fifty percent of their annual lease, not to exceed $15,000 per award.
Eligible Applicants include: Arts-focused nonprofit organizations designated as 501(c)(3) entities in good standing as well as for-profit art galleries, museums, and art studios whose primary mission is to exhibit, create, present, and/or sell artistic work accessible to the public.
