We are pleased to announce that the NOLA Artist Incubator has been selected as recipients of support from the Dollar General Foundation! The Budding Artists program will receive funding to support youth literacy and expand our existing literacy program.

Our Budding Artists early education program is designed to create sustainable art and literacy experiences focused on nature with children (2-5) and their caregivers. We offer this program in partnership with the New Orleans Public Library in the spring. Going into its third year, we are committed to providing meaningful learning experiences for children and families in New Orleans. Support from this grant will ensure we can continue to provide materials to encourage young people to develop a lifelong love of reading, the arts, and nature.

We are thrilled to have been selected as one of 8 organizations throughout New Orleans. Thank you to the Dollar General Literacy Foundation for your support of this valuable program!
