Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed’s Office of Cultural Affairs announced recently that it received a $50,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
The Our Town grant program supports creative placemaking projects that help to transform communities into beautiful and resilient places with the arts at their core.
“The programs developed as a result of the grant will add to Atlanta’s future as a creative place, improving the quality of life for citizens and economic development through the arts,” said Camille Russell Love, OCA executive director.
Since the program’s inception in 2011, the NEA has awarded 325 Our Town grants totaling almost $26 million in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia.
