Blue Water Arts Committee
Grant funds are made possible from the Charles and Margaret Anderson Foundation Endowment Fund held at the Community Foundation of St. Clair County (CFSCC). The Blue Water Arts Committee (BWAC) is the advisory committee for the CFSCC for granting decisions to be made in regards to arts and cultural programs and projects in the local Blue Water Area. The BWAC is comprised of local art organization leaders, supporters and artists who have been chosen to be representatives of the public interest and for their knowledge of the community. Other grant funds may be made available by other agencies, corporations or other sources as the BWAC grows and evolves.
