The Arts of Kenmore is offering financial assistance to local school art, drama and music departments to augment funding of various programs.

Grants are intended to be used to enhance all art forms taught in the Kenmore schools, and are not necessarily restricted to ‘projects.’ Requests for funding can be for supplies, field trips, guest artists or any activity that enhances education in the arts.
