The University of Arkansas Community Design Center at Fayetteville received a $50,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. The Community Design Center is an outreach program of the Fay Jones School of Architecture. The funding comes from the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act, also known as the federal "economic stimulus" program. The Community Design Center will use the grant funds to help pay the salaries of its four fulltime staff members. The Community Design Center and the Arkansas Repertory Theatre Co. were the only two organizations in Arkansas to be awarded the stimulus grants.
