Reminder that The 5 Town Friends of the Arts ( 5-TFA) is still accepting grant applications for its Spring round of community grants. The community grants program helps fund activities and events in the fine arts, performing arts, and other cultural experiences to enrich the lives of people living in Monkton, New Haven, Bristol, Lincoln and Starksboro.

One goal of 5-TFA is to expose children and teens to arts and culture, so preference will be given to projects that meet that goal. Previous recipients have been libraries in the five towns, schools seeking funding for special events or artists in residence, theater programs and other community groups with great ideas in need of funding. 

Applications are due on or before March15 and can be downloaded from the organization website www.5townfriendsofthearts.org . Please send completed applications to  FiveTownFOA@gmail.com (preferred) or mail c/o AOM, 25 Main St. Bristol , Vermont 05443
