The Bloomingdale School of Music has received two grants from the New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) totaling in $40,000.

The funding will go towards the support and recovery of the nonprofit arts and culture sector.

New York has invested $240 million in the arts under Governor Kathy Hochul. Hochul said in an official press release, “As a cultural capital of the world, New York State is strengthened by our expansive coverage of the arts across all 62 counties. This year’s historic commitment to the arts sector will spur our continuing recovery from the pandemic and set the course for a stronger future.”

Following this historic investment in arts funding NYSCA has awarded $90 million since Spring 2022 to a record number of artists and organizations across the state.

The organization announced last November that it had also received $10,000  in recovery funding from the New York State Council on the Arts.
