The board voted unanimously to award $307,825 in grants to several dozen area arts organizations Thursday. Add to that a $100,000 cut to arts funding in the 2025 budget, and each of the 49 groups this year will receive a $6,413 grant. During a meeting of the Milwaukee County Board Thursday, Wasserman changed his tune and pushed for releasing the grants as they are. In recent years, Wisconsin has ranked last in per capita arts funding.
