Annual grants and donations to the Carbon County Arts Guild have supported art education programs to rural schools and residents at local senior living facilities. For example, the Tippet Rise Fund of the Sidney E. Frank Foundation, Sibanye-Stillwater, and Red Lodge Hospitality have enabled the Arts Guild to pay for an art teacher in some of our rural schools giving the students consistent exposure to the visual arts. Additionally, private contributions help staff to provide art programs for all age groups.
