Since its inception, the NCP Community Micro Grant program has awarded over $30,000 to artists, arts organizations, and neighborhood groups. NCP Executive Director Blair Lesser Sullivan noted that NCP “believes strongly in providing seed money to support local events and projects that enhance and build community. A little bit of financial support goes a long way and we look forward each cycle to investing in more Newton arts and culture programming, public art, service and beautification projects.”
