David Stabler had a recent piece<\/a> about the new round of grants that have been funded by the Oregon Cultural Trust<\/a> for the 2011-2012 season, and so I went digging through the PDF press release<\/a> from the OCT website to see what interesting projects would catch my<\/em> eye. What did not catch my eye? The Oregon Symphony. I would have figured that there might have been something, especially in the Education and Community Engagement department that would have qualified for funding, but it looks like it was a very competitive year.<\/p>\n
