Art Matters.
Greetings art enthusiasts!
The Octagon Center for the Arts in Ames, IA has requested $50,000 through the Pepsi Refresh grant program to renovate an empty storefront into a community gallery for aspiring artists to showcase their artwork…..but we need your votes to win!
The Pepsi Refresh Project makes available millions of dollars to be granted to projects which are intended to improve communities through an online, democratic voting process ("Grant Program"). The Octagon needs you to vote throughout the month of March for this project to be in the running for grant funds. Voting ends on March 31! Top 10 projects receiving the most votes become finalists! We can accomplish this with YOUR help!
As of this morning, Octagon was ranked #41 out of 290 entries in the $50,000 category!
