Hanover Cultural Council seeks funding proposals

Dear fellow Hanoverians:
HANOVER CULTURAL COUNCIL SEEKS FUNDING PROPOSALS

Proposals for community-oriented arts, humanities, and science programs are
due October 15.
The Hanover Cultural Council has set an October 15 postmark deadline for
organizations, schools and individuals to apply for grants that support
cultural activities in the community.

According to Council spokesperson Karen Cass, these grants can support a
variety of artistic projects and activities in Hanover — including
exhibits, festivals, field trips, short-term artist residencies or
performances in schools, workshops and lectures.

The Hanover Cultural Council is part of a network of 329 Local Cultural
Councils serving all 351 cities and towns in the Commonwealth. The LCC
Program is the largest grassroots cultural funding network in the nation,
supporting thousands of community-based projects in the arts, sciences and
humanities every year. The state legislature provides an annual
appropriation to the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency, which
then allocates funds to each community.

This year, the Hanover Cultural Council will distribute about $4,300 in
grants. Previously funded projects include: “The Music Man” play at the
Hanover Middle School, “Beyond the Classroom” Art Exhibit for Teachers on
the South Shore, Theatrical Magic at the John Curtis Free Library, The
Visiting Artist Program at Center/Sylvester Schools, and Diversity Day at
the South Shore Children’s Museum, to name only a few! Of course, the
Annual Hanover Day Celebration is the Cultural Council’s largest
undertaking, and this event allows the Council to fund bigger and better
projects each year which enrich our community.

For specific guidelines and complete information on the Hanover Cultural
Council, contact Karen Cass at (781)982-0080, or karencass@comcast.net. An
application form is attached to this e-mail. Information about the Local
Cultural Council Program is available online at
http://www.mass-culture.org/lcc_public.aspx. Paper application forms are
also available at The John Curtis Free Library.
