Birch Creek Receives Wisconsin Arts Board Grant

Birch Creek jazz performers.

The Wisconsin Arts Board’s Creation and Presentation Program – supported by funds from the state and the National Foundation for the Arts – has given Birch Creek a grant to support the music-education programs and public concerts that, in 2019, will take Birch Creek into its 44th year.

“Arts Board grants have recognized Birch Creek’s excellence in music education since 2000, and in every consecutive year since 2003,” said Mona Christensen, executive director. “The Arts Board is a state agency that nurtures creativity, cultivates expression and supports the arts in education. To be recognized by the state of Wisconsin for the value we provide to our community is an honor.”

Birch Creek matches Arts Board funds with money raised through tuition, ticket sales, grants and individual and foundation gifts. Learn about the 2019 concert season at birchcreek.org.
