Golden Isles Arts & Humanities Awarded
'Cultural Facilities' Grant
Golden Isles Arts & Humanities
has been awarded a Cultural Facili
ties Grant from Georgia Council for
the Arts (CGA), the Georgia Depart
ment of Economic Development team
specialized in supporting arts and cul
ture, for fiscal year 2025.
The Cultural Facilities Grant sup
ports the acquisition, construction,
restoration, or renovation of a build
ing to be used for arts programming.
Golden Isles Arts & Humanities will
use these funds to help with the cost
of replacing the Ritz Theatre audito
rium’s outdated HVAC system.
As part of this year’s Cultural Fa
cilities Grant awards, 24 entities in
18 counties will receive $1.2 million in
funding.
“We are so grateful to the Georgia
Council for the Arts for this much
needed assistance in replacing the 23
year old HVAC system,” said Heather
Heath, Executive Director of Golden
Isles Arts & Humanities. “The Ritz
Theatre has some funds allocated
from the current SPLOST, but with
the assistance of the GCA grant, we
will be able to make the dollars go far
ther and take on more projects in this
wonderful and very busy facility in the
downtown Brunswick.
“Golden Isles Arts & Humanities
has received funding over the years
from GCA for a variety of programs
including the Golden Isles Penguin
Project and we are grateful for their
assistance in helping us grow the arts
in our community.”
“Georgia Council for the Arts is
pleased to provide this support to our
nonprofit arts organizations, which
ensures they can continue to foster
economic and cultural vitality,” said
CGA Executive Director Tina Lilly.
CGA received applications from
arts organizations from across the
state, including performing arts cen
ters, museums, galleries, amphithe
aters, and arts classroom spaces. Cul
tural Facilities Grants are available to
arts organizations for repairing, pre
serving, or acquiring an arts facility,
or for purchasing equipment.
Funding for these grants is provid
ed through appropriations from the
Georgia General Assembly and the
American Rescue Plan (ARP).
GCA uses Peer Review Panels to
judge and review applications follow
ing standard practices set by the Na
tional Endowment for the Arts. Pan
elists are GCA Council members and
fellow professionals who are experi
enced in the arts discipline or type of
grant being reviewed, or are citizens
with a record of arts activities, experi
ence, and knowledge.
