PA CultureCheck is an annual statewide survey created by PA Humanities and the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance to gather the voices and interests of cultural, arts, and humanities organizations, along with other nonprofits, community organizations, and businesses doing work in this space.
We are excited to share that in a special meeting on December 19, the Commonwealth Finance Authority (CFA) approved $15 million in allocations for arts and culture organizations and creative professionals across the state through the PA Arts & Culture Recovery Grant program. Over $6 million of the funds were awarded in the southeastern region of the state.
