This is a caption style. It can be used to point out things like how cute this little red car is. Always centered with some padding on the left and the right.

Print fairs, communal dining, open calls and a special lying down event; plenty of options to belatedly celebrate Father’s Day!

ArtPlace Awardees

The Foundation is pleased to report that three Initiative organizations have received funding through the collaborative grantmaking effort, ArtPlace. The full list of the Creative Placemaking grantees can be found online through the ArtPlace website.

“Across the country, cities and towns are using the arts to help shape their social, physical, and economic characters,” said NEA Chairman Rocco Landesman. “The arts are a part of everyday life, and I am thrilled to see yet another example of arts organizations working with city, state, and federal offices to help strengthen and revitalize their communities through the arts. It is wonderful that ArtPlace and its funders have recognized this work and invested in it so generously.”
