Grant award from the city of Wilsonville
Charbonneau Arts Association will be one of four recipients of a Community Cultural Events and Programs Grant award this year , supported by the city of Wilsonville . Our application was for a fairly modest $ 2,080 toward the purchase of additional exhibit display panels for the Student Art Gallery at the festival . This is the second grant we have received this year . The first was from Clackamas County Cultural Coalition to cover the costs of our registration and silent auction online programs . Thanks to these grant awards , we can devote more of our funds to our own high school grants without having to dip into the reserves . Grant writing is at times a daunting task , but , when it ’ s successful , it ’ s well worth the effort !

“ Always , Patsy Cline ” is scheduled for 7:30 p . m . Sunday , July 16 in the Charbonneau Pavilion . Watch for email news about ticket sales , which should begin soon .
