Flexible Support for Arts and Culture Administrators
The Peer Support Program provides flexible support to arts, culture, and heritage administrators. It offers free access to a team of advisors experienced in grant writing, non-profit bookkeeping, event planning, and more. It also provides free professional development workshops and resources to organization members and Leadership Grants to empower members to pursue other professional development opportunities.
Leadership Grants are intended to encourage the development of knowledge and expertise of Arts North East Organization Members. The $400 grant will be used to pay expenses incurred attending workshops in professional development or other topics leading to increased implementation of the member organization’s goals and objectives.
The number of grants is limited, depending on funding, and are distributed first-come, first-served basis, year-round.
