Bringing “Art to Life”

Taube Museum of Art is awarded $6,390! 

(Minot, ND) The Taube Museum of Art has been awarded a grant of $6,390 from the North Dakota Council on the Arts.  

 The grant will be used to bring “art to life” in the community. Gallery events are designed to expose people to a variety of artistic media and talents, to promote active participation, and to increase awareness of the visual arts in the Minot community. Artfest, Tour of Homes, and the Cookie Walk are examples of these events.  

This grant will allow the museum to continue following its mission, to enrich lives through the visual arts, by offering diverse art opportunities for all ages and cultures. The museum continues to encourage public understanding of the arts by exhibiting a variety of art forms and artists from diverse cultures, and challenging the public’s perception of the art. 

This funding will support a portion of the museum’s basic operating expenses. Approximately 930 student and adult artists have participated in exhibits at the museum and over 52,000 individuals have been directly involved as participants or audience members in the museum’s many programs. 

This project is supported in part by a grant from the North Dakota Council on the Arts, which receives funding from the state legislature and the National Endowment for the Arts.
