Art Reach of Mid Michigan has been awarded a grant from the Rotary Club of Mount Pleasant for $1,116. The funding will be used to offset administrative and promotional expenses associated with Kids and Culture 2019.

Kids and Culture is a collaboration between local cultural organizations in the Mount Pleasant area, focused on bringing free cultural activities to kids, on a monthly basis. The 2019 partners 
are: Art Reach, WCFX, WCMU Public Media, the Chippewa River District Library, the Central Michigan University Museum of Cultural and Natural History, RedBloom Yoga Studio, Off Broadway Performing Arts Studio, the Mount Pleasant Discovery Museum, and the Ziibiwing Cultural Center. The program will be sponsored by Migizi Economic Development Corporation in 2019.
 
Art Reach Executive Director Amy Powell stated, “Since beginning in 2016 this program has served over 2,600 individuals, primarily kids. This is an example of a true collaboration between organizations, working to make our community stronger through programming and opportunities. The funding from Rotary will help us promote the event, and hopefully increase our reach even further in 2019.”
