Comments on: An interview with Martha Zola http://www.newburghadvocate.com/2008/12/07/an-interview-with-martha-zola/ to encourage participation in the democratic process Sat, 17 Jul 2010 19:53:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Cherry V. http://www.newburghadvocate.com/2008/12/07/an-interview-with-martha-zola/comment-page-1/#comment-119 Cherry V.

But in the idea of how to bring artists to Newburgh I propose the not so simple idea of subsidized housing for artists in Newburgh. Former Gov. Spitzer signed a grant for $12,000 to a single artist over a two-year period and up to $20,000 to a group of artists, also over a two-year period. The $ will go to artists that will mostly likely go to DUMBO, why not petition them to come to Newburgh. There is a lot of great raw warehouse/open space in those abandoned buildings! http://www.nyartsmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=6130&Itemid=24 http://www.artinfo.com/news/story/25561/new-york-state-oks-housing-grants-for-artists/ I didn’t throughly read this article-it was so long.
