"Nest Egg" Grants
The "Nest Egg" grant was founded in 2006 by owners of Napa Nest, Ann Trinca and Norma Quintana. Seed money was donated by the "Founding Feathers" listed below. The purpose of the grant is to award local artists with unrestricted funds to support their work and living expenses. The fund is managed by the Arts Council of Napa Valley.
The first grant will be awarded to a local filmmaker at the Westward Film Fest on August 15, 2008.
