Did you know we have a Plein Air painting event coming up on at Spruce Forest Artisan Village? The event is June 20 from 8-3, anyone can enter. How it works is you bring your materials, register, paint anything you want in the village, then turn your painting in by 3 for judging. It is a really neat event if you are an amateur or pro painter!

"Every meaningful change begins with someone asking, 'What if?'"

Yesterday, we celebrated the organizations receiving grants through the Community Trust Foundation's 2026 Community Grant Program.

As we mark our 20th anniversary, we're reminded that every fund, every nonprofit, and every community project started with a vision of what could be possible. Through the generosity of donors and the dedication of nonprofit leaders, those ideas become action, and those actions strengthen our communities.

This year, $311,000 in grant funding will be invested in projects across our region, supporting organizations that improve lives, create opportunity, preserve what matters, and help our communities thrive.

The best part? Every one of us can play a role. Whether it's making a gift, volunteering your time, sharing your expertise, or championing a cause you care about, community impact begins when people choose to get involved.

Together, we are demonstrating The Power of Community.

Celebrating 20 years of connecting philanthropy for community good.
