The Alabama State Council for the Arts has awarded $15,000 (10/1/2021-9/30/2022) to Klein Arts & Culture under the Alabama Arts Recovery Program to address our program losses during the pandemic. This was supplemented by a Sustainability Grant of $6,000 from South Arts to support our operations between 1/1 to 12/31/2022. Klein Arts & Culture has had to close the doors of the Wallace House and cease on-site programming during the course of the pandemic. KAC lost the momentum that would have followed the 2020 hosting of the Alabama Dance Festival’s Migratuse Ataraxia. With this funding, we are hiring part-time staff to bring back and enhance programming at the House.
