TRENTON — After years dreaming about the creation of an arts district in downtown Trenton, city officials this week announced a $50,000 grant to help get the project rolling.
Trenton and the Passage Theatre Company have received a federal grant to help facilitate the development of the district in the city’s Old Trenton area, which encompasses roughly nine square blocks of the city extending west from Route 1. The zone includes mostly housing, but also theater, fashion and other arts activities.
The $50,000 grant is funded through the National Endowment for the Arts’ Our Town program.
