Last year, it handed out 13 grants totaling $4,600 for local projects. Recipients included the Pilgrim Festival Chorus, the Satuit Concert Band, the Choral Art Society of the South Shore, the Friends of Holly Hill Farm, the Fuller Craft Museum, a Halloween performance titled “Goblins and Giggles,” the Scituate/Sucy-en-Brie Sister City Committee, the Scituate Historical Society, the North and South Rivers Watershed Association, the James Library and Center for the Arts, the Brockton Symphony Orchestra, the Community Garden Club of Duxbury, the Talking Information Center and the South Shore Art Center.
