Melrose Cultural Council Seeks Input for Arts and Cultural Survey

Melrose, MA: The Melrose Cultural Council is asking the community to help inform arts funding in Melrose.

Local cultural councils across the Commonwealth send annual community surveys to help determine funding priorities for individual cities and towns. The state agency, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, sets forth a specific set of funding guidelines for state arts and cultural funds. The results of these local surveys further help define funding priorities that are specific to our community.

We appreciate hearing from you. Please take a moment to complete by visiting our website at melroseculture.org/news
