Timilty and the Mansfield Local Cultural Council (MLCC) announce the award of grants totaling $8,030 for cultural programs benefiting the Mansfield community. Grant recipients include Mansfield Council on Aging, Mansfield Public Library, The Un -Common Theatre Company, Mansfield Music and Arts Society, the Rose Garden Coffeehouse, and Qualters Middle School educator Mary Chmielecki. A list of recipients may be found below. MLCC is part of a network of 329 Local Cultural Councils serving all 351 cities and towns in the Commonwealth. The LCC Program is the largest grassroots cultural funding network in the nation, supporting thousands of community-based projects in the arts, sciences, and humanities every year. The state legislature provides an annual appropriation to the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency, which then allocates funds to each community. Decisions about which activities to support are made at the community level by a board of municipally appointed volunteers. The members of the MLCC are: Lisa Piscatelli, Nicole Burch, Jacqueline Curtis, Sally Fehervari, Gail Gilman, Margo Lemieux, Brian Quinn, Annette Shaw, Lori Stanovitch and Katharine Wroth. "It's the local volunteers who really make this system work," said Senator Timilty. "They make limited resources go as far as possible, and they make the tough decisions about which projects should be -- supported. Thanks to them, the arts, sciences and humanities are part of people's everyday lives across the state." Statewide, more than $2.34 million will be distributed by local cultural councils in 2017. Grants will support an enormous range of grass-roots activities: concerts, exhibitions, radio and video productions, field trips for schoolchildren, after-school youth programs, writing workshops, historical preservation efforts, lectures, nature and science education programs for families and town festivals. Nearly half of LCC funds support educational activities for young people.
