The Massachusetts Cultural Council has granted Hampden $2,500 to be used along with monies raised by our local council for fiscal year 2005-2006. Individuals or organizations may apply for a general support grant projects such as workshops, lectures, exhibitions, festivals, science education and artistic projects or for a PASS grant funds to enable schools and youth groups to take students to cultural performances outside of school. Applications and detailed guidelines are available at Town Hall Selectmen's Office 625 Main Street. Completed applications must be postmarked by October 17th. For more information or questions, contact HCC Chairperson James A. McEwan at 566-5300. The HCC is also seeking residents of Hampden to join our cultural council as volunteer members. The term of service is 2 years and involves 5-8 meetings per year, usually in the evening as well as occasional fund raising. The Hampden Cultural Council would also like to take this opportunity to publicly thank all those Hampden residents who have volunteered their time and their financial support to our local council. These generous people and others like them make Hampden a great place in which to live! |
