NoVAC Recieves Grant from Knight Foundation
The North Valley Arts Council (NoVAC) has received
a grant from the John
S. and James L. Knight Foundation in the amount of
$145,000 to be used over three years. Effective January 1, 2005,
grant funds will support professional development opportunities
for area arts providers, and the development of an on-line community
arts resource and calendaring system. Grant funds will also
maintain existing activities, including the production of NoVAC's
quarterly newsletter, calendars of events, artist directory,
web site updates and advocacy and outreach activities. With
grant support from the Knight Foundation, the Administrative
Coordinator position has been increased to full-time. NoVAC
receives additional support from the Archibald Bush Foundation,
the North Dakota Council on the Arts, the Charles D. and Elynor
B. Nelson Foundation and our members.
