Alamance County, N.C., February 7, 2019 – Local residents Logan White and Daniel Ayers were awarded
grants by The Regional Artist Grant program for 2019. Logan White was awarded a grant for her project,

The Regional Artist Grant program is designed to support artists of all disciplines in completing their

ArtsGreensboro coordinates. The other four counties are Caswell, Guildford, Randolph, and Rockingham.
White and Ayers were two of the 14 artists awarded grants out of a total of 37 applicants. This year’s
funding requests amounted to over $71,500.
