About Us
Thirty-nine artists from Maine's Aroostook County have been awarded up to $1,000 in micro-grants to help them create new work, enhance their artistic skills, or improve their ability to share their art with the public, the Portland Press Herald reports.
"There are a range of diverse artists ceramicists, potters, jewelers, music, painters, and Indigenous artists," a regional development director for the Maine Arts Commission says.
"We hope this program will be a catalyst for artists all disciplines to come together as a vibrant creative network."
