The Village of Niles Arts and Culture Project for 2022-23
The Village of Niles Arts & Culture Advisory Council has been commissioned to assist the Village in fostering arts and culture in the community by supporting the people and organizations that create artistic and cultural experiences that are open to all residents and visitors and benefit the Niles community. The Arts and Culture Project is a means to achieve these goals.
The Council has up to $5,000 available to fund one or more projects through April 30, 2023. Individuals or groups are invited to participate and take advantage of this opportunity.
