Nonprofits in ten northeast Georgia counties are among the recipients of $570,000 in funding this year from the Georgia Council for the Arts.
In all, 79 entities across the state in 58 counties will share in the Vibrant Communities and Cultural Facilities grants.
In northeast Georgia, the recipients are in Elbert, Barrow, Banks, Fannin, Lumpkin, Towns, Rabun, Hart, White, and Forsyth counties.
“The Vibrant Communities Grant, along with our new Cultural Facilities Grant, have allowed GCA to support some of the most impactful arts programming happening in communities of all sizes throughout the state,” said Karen Paty, Executive Director for Georgia Council for the Arts. “These grants invest not only in the cultural infrastructure, buildings, classrooms, theatres, and museums, that support the creation of great programs, but also the downtowns, libraries, community centers, and schools that invite Georgians to connect with one another and with meaningful arts experiences in their everyday lives.”
