New Mexico is offering up to $25,000 in state grants to established creative businesses in an effort to support long-term growth in the sector.

Applications opened Dec. 1 and close Dec. 26 at 6 p.m. The program accepts one application per business each fiscal year, beginning July 1 and running until June 30. An informational webinar is set for Dec. 5 at 10 a.m. The program鈥檚 second cycle runs from Feb. 2-27 next year.

鈥淣ew Mexico鈥檚 creative businesses are key players in developing community culture and driving economic development,鈥� said Shani Harvie, director of the state鈥檚 Creative Industries Division, in a statement. 鈥淭his grant helps smaller creative enterprises leverage state funding into tangible growth and helps position them competitively with other enterprises.鈥�

Previous grantees include T.Skies Jewelry in Albuquerque, which used the grant to create a brand partnership with Polo Ralph Lauren selling New Mexico-made leather belts, and also expanded a program helping students from Native American communities pay for school.
