Two Mohawk Valley organizations received grants from the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) for projects at their facilities.
The Kirkland Art Center (KAC) received a $50,000 grant it will use to complete the renovation of its dance studio with state-of-the-art flooring and a heating/cooling system. These renovations will allow the art center to maintain dance as a core component of the arts.
“We are delighted to receive this award from NYSCA,” Damhnait McHugh, KAC board member, said in a press release announcing the grant. “The renovations of the dance studio will breathe new life into one of our most popular programs. We’re looking forward to welcoming dancers, young and old, back to the KAC soon.”
