WOMEN SUPPORTING THE ARTS
Investing in our
Arts Community
Women Supporting the Arts is proud
to announce the recipients of their 2019 grant
awards. This year’s list represents an array of
artistic media, project type and interest areas.
Several grant recipients are new, and others are
returning projects. What they have in common
is a valuable outcome for the enhancement of
Martin County’s arts community.
The challenge for members is in
selecting the grant recipients, since the funds
are not unlimited. The grants below represent a
$20,000 investment in music, art, scholarships,
arts education, and arts therapy.
Interested in learning more about the
vision for a women’s giving circle that supports
the arts? Call Nancy Turrell, 772-287-6676
ext 4 to discuss. The annual investment to
become a part of WSA is $1,000, unless you are
under 40, then it is only $500. Members have
an opportunity to work closely with the grant
recipients throughout the implementation of the
grant, gathering information to share with fellow
members of Women Supporting the Arts.
Becoming part of a community of
women who share a love for the arts is an integral
part of the success of Women Supporting the
Arts since it was created in 2004. Acquaintances
have become life-long friends through their
engagement in Women Supporting the Arts.
They travel together, visit museums, attend
concerts and share in the best life has to offer in
our community and across the globe.
