Paxton Cultural Council
Throughout its existence, the Paxton Local Cultural Council has always striven to enhance and enrich the cultural experiences of the members of their small town.
An effort has always been made to attempt equality in service to all ages from toddlers to the elderly and interests as varied as musical, scientific, historical, and literary with added attention given so that those with disabilities may also enjoy the Council’s programs.
A necessity of all grants is that each must have reached a definite agreement with the venue involved for a performance. If there has been no effort to acquired venue approval before the submission of any grant, then it will not be considered for funding.
Funding various programs that are distributed throughout the year help allow cultural experiences during many months for our residents.
Direct Grant payment will hopefully help sustain many local artists who have been severely impacted by the ongoing pandemic.
