Mar 3, 2021 WESTPORT The Depot Theatre has been awarded a $5,000 grant from the Cloudsplitter Foundation for ongoing operational needs and improvements to its artist housing. The grant represents continued support from Cloudsplitter Foundation for this mission-driven project which will ultimately allow the theatre flexibility to expand programming into the winter months. In 2019, the Depot was awarded a $4,000 grant from the Cloudsplitter Foundation for capital improvements to its artist housing, following a $2,000 grant in 2018 toward Phase 1 of the project, which included upgraded HAVAC and new smoke-CO2 alarm systems. The nine-bedroom house currently serves as seasonal housing for part-time artistic and educational staff, crew and visiting Actors’ Equity artists. As a professional theatre operating under an agreement with Actors’ Equity Association, the Depot is required to provide housing for its visiting artists who work at the theater during its summer main stage

LOWVILLE, N.Y. (WWNY) - The Arc Oneida-Lewis chapter - which helps people with disabilities - is asking for the publicâs help.
The Arc has launched a âraise the roofâ campaign to raise money for a new roof for its Progress Industries Building on Forest Avenue in Lowville.
The current roof is beyond repair, Arc officials say, with many leaks. Right now, they deploy buckets to catch the water. It makes for very difficult working conditions, Arc officials say.
