Mattapoisett Cultural Council seeks members

Feb 26, 2018

Mattapoisett's Cultural Council is seeking several new volunteers.

The council specifically seeks volunteers interested in serving as voting members, who work together to allocate funding to public events in the area.

Each year, the council awards funds for public cultural events such as plays and concerts, arts in the schools, community arts and cultural organizations, field trips for students to museums and performances, and more. The Council awards these programs as they promote the availability of cultural experiences for Mattapoisett residents.

Council members are municipally-appointed volunteers who help determine how to disburse available funds to the individuals, schools, and cultural organizations that apply for project support.

Information about the cultural council program is available at www.massculturalcouncil.org/programs/lccgrants.asp.

Those who are interested or have questions about becoming  a member are asked to contact kcdamaskos@gmail.com.

The deadline to join the council is March 10.
