Congrats to the 2015 Fairhaven LCC Grant Recipients!

Congratulations to the 2015 Fairhaven Local Cultural Council grant recipients!

The Fairhaven Cultural Council was able to distribute more than $6,500 to 18 local organizations to provide a variety of culturally based educational and community programming in 2015.

“We’re excited to see more and more organizations apply each year, and to see the variety of projects applicants are working on,” says Kristine Daniels, council president. “Between our state allocation of money and the town’s generous funding, we are able to support a number of different groups this year.”

The Fairhaven Cultural Council aims to bring a mix of cultural programming to people of all ages living in the community. This year’s grant recipients range from classic productions, historical programs, and more modern artistic projects that can be enjoyed by individuals of all ages. Please support and enjoy these programs!
