NJ awards over $35 million in arts grants, as arts budget doubles
TRENTON – New Jersey artists, projects and organizations were awarded more than $35 million in grants Tuesday by the State Council on the Arts, a combination of an expanded allocation from the state and federal pandemic recovery funds.
“These aren’t just investments in artists and arts organizations,” said Secretary of State Tahesha Way, whose department includes the arts council. “These are investments in our communities and our quality of life.”
The arts council received $31.9 million through the state budget and $7.5 million from coronavirus recovery funds provided through Washington. The council will award the final $4.1 million later in the year as part of a new capital needs-based program.
