A fund dedicated to supporting the arts in St Joseph has singled out two events for this year’s awards.

The Allied Arts Council announces this year’s recipients of the David H. Morton Memorial Fund for the Arts.

Trustees selected the Performing Arts Association’s production of “The Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra Workshop & Performance” and St. Joseph Museums for “Confluence: The Great Flood of 1993”

The purpose of the fund is to sponsor at least one arts event annually to pay tribute to Mr. David Morton’s leadership in the St. Joseph arts community. The fund can award grants to any public or private organization that has received or applied for tax-exempt status. Projects considered for the grant included, music, exhibitions, public art, and theatre projects.

The Morton Fund accepts contributions at any time, as memorials, tributes, or just to support the arts. For more information about the fund, call the Allied Arts Council at 233-0231.
