Alternate Sponsorship ProgramThe New Jersey State Council on the Arts and New Jersey Historical Commission provide support to arts and history organizations through funding administered by the Ocean County Cultural & Heritage Commission. Thanks to an unprecedented increase in funding from the state of New Jersey, the Ocean County Cultural & Heritage Commission is offering a Alternate Sponsorship Program.
