The Special Projects Program funds a variety of arts projects serving Bellevue residents. By encouraging and supporting special projects in Bellevue we aim to achieve the goals of the Cultural Compass, Bellevue's cultural plan, by:
- providing a cultural public benefit to Bellevue’s residents;
- creating a livelier, more diverse arts scene in Bellevue;
- increasing support for and participation in the arts;
- encouraging artists and arts groups to bring their work to Bellevue; and
- strengthening artists and arts groups working in Bellevue.
