Members sought for Malden Cultural Council

Mayor Gary Christenson is reaching out to Malden residents to fill two vacancies on the Malden Cultural Council. The Malden Cultural Council works to encourage and promote the artistic development of the arts in Malden through state grant program funding. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts through the Mass Cultural Council allocates funds to Malden each year in support of the fine arts, including performing art programs, exhibits and festivals throughout the community. The primary responsibility of the Malden Cultural Council is to review local grant applications and award funding to select proposals, as funding permits.

The majority of meetings are held during grant season (September through December) either on Saturdays or weeknights at a time mutually agreeable to all members. There may be additional meetings during the year on a weeknight, scheduled as necessary. The Council is seeking applicants who would consider serving as Treasurer for the next round of grantmaking. Appointees serve a three-year term.

To apply to the Malden Cultural Council, please complete the online Boards and Commissions Application at www.cityofmalden.org/BCApplication. Please email km**********@**********en.org for additional questions. The deadline for accepting applications is Wednesday, September 3, 2025.
