We have some exciting news to share!
The Mariposa County Arts Council has been awarded the California Arts Council’s Innovations + Intersections Grant. We are one of 6 funding recipients for this program and we will use this award to develop, create and install a series of site-specific artistic interventions and produce cultural programming addressing wildfire risk reduction strategies and representation of the Southern Sierra Miwuk Nation - two deeply linked issues currently reframing Mariposa's community dialogue about fire management practices, historical narratives, and the connection between place and public health.
This project would not be possible without our amazing partners: the Southern Sierra Miwuk Nation/Miwumati Healing Center, the Mariposa County Planning and Health Departments and Sierra Foothill Conservancy. And deep gratitude to the California Arts Council for the vision, leadership and intention embedded in this funding opportunity.
