COURT HOUSE – The John Walter Band, the Community Concert Band of Cape May County, New Jersey has been awarded a New Jersey Cultural Trust Grant to facilitate investment in sound and “Live Streaming” equipment. Live-streamed concerts and music study events are targeted to begin early September 2023.

The New Jersey Cultural Trust was created in July 2000 as a public/private partnership to help ensure a stable and healthy nonprofit cultural industry in New Jersey that is sustainable even in the toughest of economic times. The Trust provides grants to support capital projects, endowments, and institutional and financial stabilization of arts, history, and humanities organizations in New Jersey. Funding for the grants comes from interest earned on the Cultural Trust Fund, which is a permanent investment fund.
