2023 Partners Include:
Brown County Community Gardens, a program of Extension Brown County, has provided garden space and logistical assistance to facilitate access to affordable and nutritious food since 1996. Participants rent a space for the growing season and are responsible for planting, maintaining and harvesting the plot. Last year more than 200 families, 70 percent of which were low or moderate income, participated in the program. The community gardens program also offers community events and gardening education programs for adults and youth. These include mentoring programs, youth gardening classes, a produce donation program and a garden exclusively for veterans. Friends of the Community Gardens, a 501(c)(3), was founded in 2019 to protect, grow and support community gardens. |

Music Education Recipients: Green Bay East High School Choral Department and Birder Studio of the Performing Arts
The Birder Studio of Performing Arts supports a variety of performing arts in the Brown County community with scholarships, full student sponsorships, on-site arts education classes and arts-related after school fields trips for Green Bay area elementary schools. Doctors in Recital proceeds will support Birder’s ARTreach program, which provides singing, acting and dance education workshops for underserved youth.
The GBAPS East High School Choral Department will use the Doctors in Recital funds to create a masterclass and workshop for students as well as performance events. This program will focus on World Music, and its ability to enhance understanding of cultural diversity, tradition, storytelling and language through the medium of music. Students will have the opportunity to interact with a world-class performance ensemble as well as participate in small-group teaching sessions. Interaction with these internationally known musicians will enhance students’ skill, poise and confidence.
Applications for 2024 will be open January 28-February 11, 2023. .
