Essex County Council has opened a £1m arts and culture fund for applications.
Artists and arts organisations can apply for between £2,500 and £30,000, with decisions expected late March.
Applicants should explain how they contribute to Everyone's Essex, the four-year plan for the area's creative sector.
The council says Essex's creative sector was the third largest in the UK pre-pandemic, contributing an estimated £2.6bn.
