THE AGAWAM CULTURAL COUNCIL

About Us

This page is dedicated to the memory of
Florida Tangocci

The Agawam Cultural Council is an all-volunteer local partner of the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency, and is funded, in part, by the MCC. The ACC is charged with bringing engaging, entertaining, and educational events and opportunities in the arts, humanities, and sciences, to children and adults from Agawam and the surrounding communities.

This year we awarded 25 LCC grants totaling $11,505 for cultural programs in Agawam . Any individual is eligible and encouraged to apply. We hope you have enjoyed our "Applause Series" programs, NYC bus trips, the 2008 Classic Film Festival, 2009 Musical Film Festival, and of course "SummerFest". We awarded two $1,000 Grants for the Arts from our own funds.

We are always seeking new members. Being a volunteer requires only a limited time commitment.
