Saratoga Arts Announces $148,496.96 for Arts Projects in Fulton,Montgomery and Saratoga Counties
Saratoga Arts is pleased to feature the grantees for our 2022 Community Arts Regrant Program which supports organizations and individual artists in Fulton, Montgomery, and Saratoga Counties. 47 grants totaling $148,496.96 have been awarded to support community-based arts events taking place in 2022. We are thrilled to be setting a record this year not only in the amount of funding distributed but also with the number of projects we will be able to fund, after years of isolation, it is thrilling to know these funded projects can continue to create art in our communities and, perhaps more importantly, build community through the arts.
With funding awarded from the New York State Council on the Arts, Saratoga Arts’ Community Arts Regrant Program supports artists, non-profit organizations, and government departments in Saratoga, Fulton, and Montgomery Counties, in partnership with qualifying organizations and artists, to present arts and cultural programs of high artistic merit in local communities.
This years’ grant recipients were acknowledged and celebrated at our annual Community Arts Celebration on Saturday, May 14, 2022, 10:30 AM-12:00 PM at Saratoga Arts, 320 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, NY. The public was invited to attend this free event to learn more about funded projects taking place in their communities and to enjoy light fare, beverages, and a music performance by grant awardee Byron Nilsson.
This year's recipients and their funded projects offer their communities year-round opportunities to experience a wide array of free or low-cost artistic events highlighting talented local and regional artists. An estimated 25,000 community members, 5,500 youth, and 1,500 artists will directly participate in these grant-funded events occurring throughout 2022.
Saratoga Arts' programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
