    The Fishers Arts & Culture Commission (FACC) announced today the grantees for its 2023 Fishers Arts & Culture Grant program, with nine local organizations awarded $50,750 in funding. The grant is focused on local nonprofits and organizations that uplift the arts community within Fishers. 

    “This is our third year of providing grant funds to the Fishers community, and it is rewarding to see our community come together to support these projects” said Katie Haigh, chair of the Fishers Arts & Culture Commission. “From mental health awareness with the traveling Forgiving Sea Project to dance battles hosted by 31Svn Dance Academy, 2023 will be a year packed full of meaningful cultural experiences around Fishers.”
