    Thanks to support of the NEH and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, we held a free disaster recovery workshop for arts, cultural and community organizations affected by Superstorm Sandy. This event was open to any tax-exempt organization that has cultural programming, including recipients of the Council's Hurricane Recovery Grants. Organizations affected by Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee are also welcome to attend. These statistics document the impact Sandy had on our Hurricane Recovery Grantees. Information includes how grants helped with their recovery, and what tasks remain at their organizations.
