EPD DAILY ACTIVITY REPORT
Leave Your Christmas Tree Curbside On Your Trash Collection Day
 (Evansville, IN) – Evansville Water and Sewer Utility will offer the annual Christmas tree disposal service starting Monday, December 27, through Friday, January 14, 2022. Simply place your Christmas tree next to your trash cart at the curb on the day of your scheduled trash collection and Republic Services will pick it up and take it to the landfill.
Utility customers who pay for trash and recycling with their monthly water and sewer bill are eligible for the Christmas tree disposal service. The service is not available to residents who live in apartment complexes, mobile home communities, outside the city limits, or for retail, commercial and business customers.
If you have a live Christmas tree and would rather have it recycled instead of taken to the landfill, the Vanderburgh County Solid Waste District will hold its annual Holiday Recycling event on Saturday, January 8, 2022. Drop off your tree at the Old Walmart West shopping center, located at 4551 University Drive, from 8 a.m. until noon. Randy’s Tree Service will grind the trees at no cost. The Holiday Recycling event will also accept gift cards, cardboard boxes and other recyclables materials.
For more information on recycling, visit ewsu.com and click Trash & Recycling for a list of items that may be recycled.

(Indianapolis, Indiana) The Indiana Arts Commission (IAC) and its Regional Arts Partners announced today the opening of applications for two grant programs: The fiscal Year 2023 Arts Project Support and Arts Organization Support. Â
“Indiana’s arts organizations, art projects, and artists are critical to the vibrancy, connectedness, and economic development of our communities,â€Â said Miah Michaelsen, IAC Executive Director. “These grant programs make it possible for Hoosiers all over the state to have access to arts opportunities, and our Regional Arts Partners work alongside us to promote and expand participation in the arts in Indiana through their direct services.â€Â
Applicants for both programs apply through their respective Regional Arts Partners.  Â
About the Arts Project Support ProgramÂ
Arts Project Support grants provide nonprofit organizations with funding to support a specific arts activity, such as a one-time event, a single production, an exhibition, an educational workshop, or a series of related arts activities such as art classes or training sessions. Â
The objectives of the Arts Project Support Grant Program are to provide the general public access to quality arts activities, with particular attention to underserved communities, and to support Indiana artists who are a vital part of Indiana’s economy and community life.  Â
