Capital Region Creative Corps Sojourner Truth African Heritage Museum

"Art is Business"


Our working title is "Tactical Urbanism Art in Placemaking."

Project activity will begin in December 2023 and be completed on September 30, 2024. 

FOCUS AREA: Social Justice and Community Engagement.
 
This program is a media outreach and engagement campaign. 
Sojourner Truth African Heritage Museum will focus on Social Justice and Community Engagement.  

It is also an economic and workforce development program, demonstrating how artists from multiple disciplines can be instrumental in developing and implementing critical campaigns to address our most pressing community issues. 

This grant program intends to provide as broad a geographic reach as possible, serving all 58 counties in communities that demonstrate the highest levels of need as indicated by the California Healthy Places Index (HPI). Sub-grantee organizations should demonstrate strong, ongoing relationships with communities within the lowest quartile of the HPI and will support meaningful engagements with those communities through this grant.
