“We’re grateful for the support of the NEA in helping to sustain and expand the important work of Vermont’s arts and culture sector, and we congratulate these outstanding Vermont organizations and poetry translator on their much-deserved awards,” said Vermont Arts Council Interim Executive Director Amy Cunningham.
