It makes me feel happy. I feel happy when I sing. People who hear me sing tell me THEY feel happy; that I make their hearts happy. It's the most joyful thing that I can do, I feel, for me and for others. ~Jenny Lynn Stewart City Artist Corps Grants support NYC-based working artists who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19. Funding is offered to help sustain their practice and engage the public across New York City's five boroughs. Singer Jenny Lynn Stewart was awarded a $5,000 grant for devising an upbeat musical program The New York Spirit a musical program of uplifting and inspiring songs targeted for the 55+ senior audience. The program includes such popular songs as "I'll Take Manhattan," "on the Sunny Side of the Street" and many other show stoppers including an audience sing-a-long of "New York, New York." Success stories will be shared with the audience intended to lift their spirits and inspire them for their lives going forward.
