Summary

- The funding aims to increase arts access and boost local tourism.

A significant federal investment of $1 million has been secured for the Lake Placid Center for the Arts' Capital Project, a new arts and early childhood education hub. U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer announced the funding, fulfilling a promise made two years ago to support the center's expansion.
This new hub is expected to substantially improve access to arts and education for Essex County residents and enhance cultural tourism throughout the North Country. The project addresses critical needs, including expanding programming space and updating aging infrastructure at the center.
The initiative will create new early childhood education classrooms, arts education studios, and much-needed office workspace for local nonprofits, solidifying the center's role as a community asset.
