Submitted by Monica on June 17, 2016
Boston has announced its new Boston Creates ten-year cultural plan, which includes over one million dollars in new arts funding.
From Malcolm Gay, writing for the Boston Globe:
Initiatives include a program linking public art to new city construction and infrastructure projects, a plan to provide affordable housing to artists, a pilot program to make new rehearsal spaces available to performers, and a collaboration with the Museum of Fine Arts to conserve city-owned artworks. Meanwhile the Boston Foundation, in conjunction with the Barr Foundation, is set to establish a pooled fund providing grants to small theater and dance troupes.
