About this grant
This grant will provide funding for the Flint Institute of Music’s Fourth of July Riverbank Park concert. As part of the institute’s Music in the Parks series, the concert will be part of the July 4th festival that will take place in downtown Flint. The event attracts thousands to downtown Flint, which helps showcase revitalization efforts under way downtown. Building on the institute’s focus to diversify its programming, this year’s concert will feature a nationally known minority artist in addition to the Flint Symphony Orchestra, which should help attract an even larger, more diverse audience to downtown.
