BROOKINGS – The 3M Foundation and 3M Brookings are pleased to announce that the Brookings Arts Council has been awarded a $15,000 Community Vibrancy Grant for the 2019 grant cycle. Community Vibrancy grants are awarded to enhance vibrant, diverse and strong communities.
The Brookings Arts Council grant is written to create a Year of Art Instruction to include three 3-day residencies involving area schools, community members and art education and is loosely modeled after the hugely successful Arts Midwest Residencies held 2015 through 2017.
Now in its third year, 3M established the Community Vibrancy Fund to enhance community vibrancy in 3M communities across the United States.
The 3M Foundation invests in nonprofit community organizations that improve the standards of living in communities – with priority given to initiatives that promote economic development, youth development or increase access to quality arts programming for underserved populations.
