Bilingual theater arts

Build Community grants, totaling $210,400, including $6,000
to the Miracle Theatre Group of Astoria. The grant will support
Milagro’s UNIDAD, a bilingual arts and science residency pro-
gram, with workshops and a public performance of the play “El
Payaso.” The residency involves local students in discussing
environmental issues facing the Latino population. Grant funds
support teaching artists and related travel expenses.
Now in its 21st year, the Arts Build Communities program
targets broad geographic impact and arts access for underserved
audiences. Arts Build Communities grants frequently serve as
seed money to spur additional local support, and are made pos-
sible through partnership funding from the National Endow-
ment for the Arts.
