Lunenburg Cultural Council
The mission of the Lunenburg Cultural Council is to nurture and promote a diverse range of artistic and cultural programs for the benefit of Lunenburg and surrounding communities. These will include: programs that support science and nature education, performing arts, and town-wide cultural enrichment. We accomplish this through annual allocation of state grants for local projects and by producing cultural events using locally-raised funds. We are committed to nurturing our artistic community through supporting events that are diverse, accessible, collaborative, and fun for Lunenburg residents and visitors of all ages with priority given to in-person, live events.
