Hi, all,
BCAS has just received some very good news! Over 60 arts organizations applied for a “Give for Greatness” grant being given by the Arts Services Initiative of Western New York. Twenty five organizations were selected and we were one of them!
This grant gives us a $1000 check to be used for our Dan Forrest project. This is the second grant that we have received for our use in 2019. We also will receive a grant of $1500 from Erie County Cultural funding to be used this coming year for some of the expenses for the Dan Forrest project also.
Kudos to Kevin Phalen and Jessie Kelsey (and moi) for the time that was spent applying for this grant. In addition to the grant, we will also receive some publicity through “Lawyers for the Arts”, the Rupp Family Foundation, and the Fund for the Arts. These organizations contributed the funding for these awards.
Have a safe and healthy holiday!
Gail
