A Few Good Minutes With BCAA President Leigh Johnson

November 21, 2024

Leigh Johnson, President of the Bath County Arts Association, joined Danny in the WCHG Studio to talk about the funding opportunities available for artists and organizations in Bath County. If you’re working on a creative project, grants over $1,000 are open during Phase I (applications due December 15, funding available February 15) and Phase II (applications due April 30, funding available June 1). For smaller projects, under $1,000, rolling grants are available year-round.

Leigh shared insights into how these programs are making a difference in our community.
