Grants Announced June 11th

Arts organizations in our region learned today that area residents' donations to the campaign for the arts will add up to a $10.2 million dollar investment in arts organizations and events.

The Fine Arts Fund board approved recommendations by community volunteers for how to distribute $ 10,192,741 to arts organizations. Most of the donations provide critically important funding to cover the day-to-day expenses of 18 community-based arts groups, while a grants program supports additional initiatives by approximately 70 nonprofit groups. Taken together, this investment will support a wide range of valuable experiences including music, dance, art, and theater in communities all across our area.
