Petersburg Library Art Endowment Fund

The Petersburg Public Library Art Education Endowment was established in 2012 by Petersburg resident John McCabe. The fund provides financial assistance to the library that is spent exclusively on art and cultural programs.  The annual interest earnings provide a stable, ongoing funding source to enhance arts programming at the Library. 

The Petersburg Public Library Art Education Endowment Fund supports a range of arts opportunities at the library including visual arts, writing, music and performance.
