Arts and Culture Brown Bag Luncheon: Grants 101 on Sept. 24

The City will host its first Arts and Culture Brown Bag Luncheon on Sept. 24 featuring a panel discussion titled Grants 101 with Jim Bob McMillan, deputy director of grants for the Texas Commission on the Arts and Jill Strube, secretary of the City of Smithville’s Richard D. Latham Cultural District.

McMillan’s experience with the TCA has given him expertise in the areas of economic development, local arts agencies, and the TCA Cultural Districts. Strube has experience in writing grants across sectors including the arts, library programming, parks and recreation, and municipal and emergency services.

The meeting begins at noon in the Hewlett Room at the Georgetown Public Library, 402 W. Eighth St. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own lunch. There will be time after the discussion to share and learn about arts and culture programs happening in the Georgetown Community.

This quarterly professional development presentation is sponsored by the Georgetown Arts and Culture program. If you plan to attend, please RSVP to arts@georgetown.org.
