The National Endowment for the Arts has awarded the Milwaukee Repertory Theater an Art Works grant to support two productions this spring.

The Rep is recommended for a $30,000 grant from the NEA to help present Tony Award-winning play "Clybourne Park" and "A Raisin in the Sun."

These productions will conclude The Rep's 2012-13 season in the Quadracci Powerhouse.

Awarded by a panel of outside experts convened by NEA staff, the grant is part of a nationwide Art Works fund given to a total of 832 non-profit organizations across the country. The Milwaukee Repertory Theater was selected as one of these organizations out of 1,509 total eligible applications.
