Pete McCabe talks with the President of The Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, Sam Miller, and Special Projects Manager, Erin Donnelly. They describe this history and purpose of the council, how it works with scores of Manhattan's art organizations, and the many grants they issue to arts organizations and individuals. They also discuss a project which they initiated called Access Restricted, which provides a series of tours and presentations on architecture and history which take place in places that are usually inaccessible to the public (ARTonAIR.org is a partner in this effort, posting the talks in our archive).
