Grant to aid underserved youths

The Dickey Museum & Multipurpose Center may not have its permanent home at 500 Burkett St. rebuilt yet, but its program to aid underserved youth just got a major boost from the Anna+Anton Olson Legacy Foundation.

On Nov. 4, the foundation awarded the museum a $10,000 grant to launch a series of workshops for disadvantaged students from Taylor High School beginning in January in collaboration with Impact Counseling Services and Icye Walker from Inspire Change Everywhere.
