Despite economy, local arts group keeps grants coming
DANVILLE – A group with a love for the arts began in 1974 in Danville. After managing to bring more than $250,000 to Vermilion and Edgar counties since then, the group perseveres even after seeing funding diminish.
The Danville Area Arts Council applies for grant money through the Illinois Arts Council.
