EAC Friday Feature: Anthony Morelli

Friday Feb 3rd, 2023

Pennsylvania Council on the Arts Recognizes Erie Folk Artists with Grants

Friday Feb 3rd, 2023

Each year the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts offers up to $4000 for a master folk artist to teach their tradition within their community.

Erie Arts & Culture is pleased to announce that two Erie based artists received an Apprenticeship award in September. Each will spend a year working intensively with a mentee.
