Feature: CRE Outreach Receives City, County, State, and Federal Funding in Support of Their Life Changing Programs: MARCHING ON Opens June 28
The process of acquiring government grants is intended to spread public dollars across electoral districts and across a variety of art forms and projects. Even more importantly, the focus of the grants is on increasing cultural equity-the notion that our arts organizations need to reflect our diverse communities and that grant dollars need to help increase the access to high quality arts experiences for underserved populations. CRE Outreach is proud to have received recognition of our mission via these funding streams, as we tirelessly work to provide a dedicated performing space for the voices and stories of people historically marginalized by society. Next production, the world premiere of MARCHING ON, is written and performed by military veterans.
