Based in Reidsville, North Carolina, Arts & Trade of North Carolina (ATNC) mission is to passionately support and back local artists, tradespeople and creators. ATNC was founded in 2020 and is still in the growing stages. Despite being a young organization they have already set goals and started the process of organizing fundraising events in hopes of furthering their mission. One of the major fundraising events for ATNC will be the annual Power & Sound Revival, along with hopes of several other events held throughout the year. 

​

The foundation of ATNC’s work is in helping as many artists, tradespeople and creators further their creative abilities. This can be done in many different ways, and different routes. In the next 12 months, they hope to give out at least 2 grants to individuals to help them further their education, fund a project and/or pay for needed equipment. Another goal is to work closely with schools to provide teachers with needed equipment/supplies to teach their arts and trade programs. Additionally to these ideas, one more project to help further the mission would be to team up with established artists, tradespeople and creators to help offer apprenticeships to the next generation. What is great about the broad umbrella of “Artists, Tradespeople and Creators” is that they have the opportunity to help many people in lots of different ways. They are excited about the possibilities of what the organization can do to successfully go about their mission.
