The series brings five marquee concerts to the square, including performances from The Verve Pipe, Deep Blue Something, The Jayhawks, Sixpence None the Richer and Augustana.
The residency comes with a $5,000 honorarium, an exhibition in downtown Covington and the chance to create an original work to remain at the OneNKY Center.
Each grant provides up to $10,000 for efforts such as African cultural festivals, free Shakespeare performances, library concert tours and community art activations.
