Aloha Kākou,
I am pleased to share with you information on ArtPlace, a new national funder established by 11 foundations. The grant, one of 34 awarded by ArtPlace in its first round of funding, will provide $300,000 to support planning for a new arts facility now in pre-development in Honolulu.
ArtPlace is an initiative of 11 leading foundations working in conjunction with the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and seven federal agencies. Its aim is to drive revitalization across the country by putting the arts at the center of economic development. Please see the attached link for the press release!
Mahalo nui loa,
