Arts Alive! announces the seven recipients of its first ever mini-grants program. Announced at the end of August, the mini-grants program was Arts Alive!’s attempt to connect with and learn more about the individual artists across the Monadnock region. The result of the application process, was almost 30 project proposals of community arts initiatives, creative independent projects, and ideas to invest in creative businesses. In November, a jury met to determine which of the almost 30 projects that applied would receive funding. The following projects were selected to receive a modest amount of funding to support projects and programs that increase access to the arts across the Monadnock region.

Arts Spotlight - Stories from the Pandemic: Illustrator Robert Seaman and his Daily Doodles

As many of us were isolated during the pandemic, especially in its early days, artist/illustrator/teacher Robert Seaman, 88, was especially so. During a lockdown period at the assisted living facility he calls home, he desperately needed a creative outlet and turned to his life-long passion–drawing—to help buoy him in dark times. He began creating a doodle a day. These Daily Doodles turned his activity into a way to give back.

We’re proud to share the story of Robert Seaman, in his own words.
