Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland today announced 108 grant recipients will share $1 million in total funding from the Kansas Arts Commission (KAC). The funding reinforces KAC’s role as a catalyst for economic development and community vitality.
“These grants will support an array of organizations and initiatives that will enrich the appeal of these communities, encourage innovation and drive economic growth,” デビッド・トーランド副知事兼商務長官は次のように述べた。. “Arts shape the unique character of our Kansas communities and through these awards, community leaders and artists can continue investing locally while opening doors to new opportunities and experiences for residents and visitors alike.”
The state’s vibrant arts and culture industry supported nearly 50,000 Kansas jobs and contributed $5.47 billion to the state economy in 2023.
The $1 million awarded this year will be invested in the arts programs of non-profit organizations, local governments and colleges and universities across the state. In return, awarded organizations are required to provide a dollar-for-dollar investment match.
Funding for KAC grants come from appropriations by the Kansas Legislature and federal support from the National Endowment of the Arts (NEA).
“Through arts and culture, we have been able to create new experiences and bring flourishing opportunities to every corner of Kansas,” カンザス州芸術委員会のディレクター、カーティス・ヤングは次のように述べている。. “These grants will continue to boost our state’s quality of life through various art initiatives — such as investing in arts education, community theatres, music festivals, art museums and more — all leaving a positive, lasting impact on our state.”
