“We are thrilled and delighted to be launching two new Artists At Work (AAW) programs in the Mississippi Delta and Greater Chattanooga Thrive Region,” AAW shared in an announcement earlier this month. “We are honored to be championing these artists and their communities as they work together on projects that highlight the positive impacts of artistic civic engagement.”
Artists At Work is a workforce resilience program in the spirit of the WPA and is designed to support the rebuilding of healthy communities through artistic civic engagement. The implementation of Artists At Work in the Mississippi Delta and Thrive regions is made possible by the generous support of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
