Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts Award Ceremony
Please join the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, PECO, and the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance as we celebrate the 2009-10 Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts Awardees.
The statewide Partners in the Arts program pairs PCA with 15 regional agencies to evaluate proposals and distribute grant awards for projects or programs involving artists. The Cultural Alliance is PCA’s partner in the Philadelphia area. The program enables PCA to reach a wider audience by increasing access to funds for organizations and artists across the state, thereby increasing statewide audience exposure to arts activities.
Project Stream is a Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts program, supported by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA). Project Stream is also supported by PECO.
