UCCCA grants shift to Chenango Group

From the Daily Star: Local artists and organizations seeking state 2011 Decentralization Grant funding in Otsego County should see little difference with the Upper Catskill Community Council of the Arts no longer handling the program, two people involved with the situation said.

The Chenango County Council of the Arts announced last week that it would be administering $25,000 in funding for Otsego County provided by the New York State Council on the Arts. The group also serves Broome and Chenango counties, and the funding is available to all non-profit organizations, including municipalities and artists sponsored by a non-profit organization in the three counties, according to a media release from CCCA.
