The Festival Chorus is a recipient of a $5,000 Grant from The Cook County Arts Nonprofit Relief Grants program. They are providing unrestricted relief grants to 100 nonprofit arts organizations located in suburban Cook County.
From their website, cookcountyarts.org:
“The arts and culture sector was among the hardest-hit industries in the COVID-19 pandemic, and organizations face significant ongoing challenges due to changing operational needs and declines in both earned and contributed revenue.
Providing needed relief to arts and culture organizations will help ensure these vital community assets thrive in the post-pandemic economy.”
