We thank Randolph T. Holhut for his reportage on the Core Arts meeting of Dec. 15. We are all aware that arts organizations in Brattleboro are working hard for the good of all artists in the area.
There are a few points I would like to add to the article.
The Arts Council of Windham County (ACWC) is the only partner with the Town of Brattleboro for the National Endowment for the Arts' “Our Town” Grant. The ACWC is the group that has proposed to use grant money to create an online presence with a website and app that would serve as the electronic map to the town arts scene.
So far, there has not been enough input by the community, and the ACWC has proposed a survey to find out what the community would like the remaining grant money to be spent on. These findings will bring forth the voices of local artists regarding the last portion of this grant.
