Perth Amboy Artworks was awarded a $5,000 grant for 2025 Salsa by the Bay, part of the funds awarded by Middlesex County for Arts and History Grants. The Arts Institute of Middlesex County and the Board of County Commissioners offers grants to nonprofits and local gov based in Middlesex County. Last summer, Salsa by the Bay kicked off in beautiful Bayview Park with hour long free group dance lessons by top Latin Dance instructors and then two hours of open dancing to live Salsa by amazing Salsa Bands. The events were very successful and we look forward to an amazing time this summer.
