Cedar Rapids, Iowa—The Cedar Rapids Museum of Art (CRMA) is pleased to announce that they are the recipient of a $5,000 grant courtesy of Heinz Quality Chef Foods.
This generous grant will enable the Museum to continue its mission to excite, engage, and educate our community and visitors through our collection, exhibitions, and programs. More specifically, it will be used toward school tours and will allow the Museum to keep the docent fee low for those students visiting from outside of the Cedar Rapids Community School District.
“To have an art museum of the caliber of the CRMA makes Cedar Rapids a very special place,” says Tom Green, Plant Manager. “It contributes to a great quality of life in Cedar Rapids and Linn Couny, and Heinz Quality Chef Foods wanted to contribute to its success.”
The CRMA would like to thank Heinz Quality Chef Foods for this generous contribution.
