SEEfest awarded grant from the California Arts Council

SEEfest was featured as part of a larger announcement from the California Arts Council of more than 1,500 grants awarded to nonprofit organizations and units of government throughout the state for their work in support of the agency’s mission to strengthen arts, culture, and creative expression as the tools to cultivate a better California for all. We are honored that SEEfest belongs to this great family of nonprofit arts organizations in the state of California, and congratulate all our fellow grantees!

We will be organizing a celebration as soon as it will be possible for groups of people to come together. We invite you to join our growing circle of enthusiastic donors and make your contribution to SEEfest. Thank you, and SEE you all soon!

More from the California Arts Council statement

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the California Arts Council recognizes that some grantees may need to postpone, modify, or cancel their planned activities supported by CAC funds, due to state and local public health guidelines. The state arts agency is prioritizing flexibility in addressing these changes and supporting appropriate solutions for grantees.

“Creativity sits at the very heart of our identity as Californians and as a people. In this unprecedented moment, the need to understand, endure, and transcend our lived experiences through arts and culture is all the more relevant for each of us,” said Nashormeh Lindo, Chair of the California Arts Council.

“The California Arts Council is proud to be able to offer more support through our grant programs than ever before, at a time when our communities’ need is perhaps greater than ever before. These grants will support immediate and lasting community impact by investing in arts businesses and cultural workers across the state.”

If you like our programming orientation and the cultural mission of SEEfest, consider making a donation to support our work. Thank you!
