Yakima Fresh Hop Festival Grants Deadline Nears

The Fresh Hop Ale Festival is doing a good deed in the Yakima Valley again, but your chance to get in on the grants that are given is coming to a close. We have the details below!

Helping Out The Arts & Science organizations In The Yakima Valley

In 2003, the Fresh Hop Ale Festival was created as a non-profit organization by the Allied Arts of Yakima as a fundraiser for the arts, and quickly turned into one of the country’s top 10 beer festivals! We can raise a glass for.

Part of that fundraising tradition is the grants that the Fresh Hop Ale Festival awards to those who apply (the next ones being announced on June 30th, 2026). The deadline to get in on this year’s grant is quickly approaching!

“The 2026 Grant Application period is now open and will run from April 10, 2026, through midnight on May 30, 2026. These grants support science and arts programs, experiences, and opportunities that benefit communities throughout Yakima County.”
