Mariposa Museum Receives Development Grant

The Mariposa Museum has received a 2-year development grant from the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts. The funds will support a part-time professional who will assist the museum in reaching its development goals.

The NH State Council on the Arts is a publicly funded agency within New Hampshire’s Department of Cultural Resources. It began in 1965 with the passage of the law designed “to insure that the role of the arts in the life of our communities will continue to grow and play and even more significant part in the education and welfare of our citizens,” Funding comes from state appropriations and from the National Endowment for the Arts.
