Region 11: Creative Sector Flex Fund
This funding opportunity provides $5,000 to small arts organizations in Pennsylvania with annual revenues between $10,000 and $200,000 to support various administrative and program-related expenses, fostering community impact and equitable access to arts funding.
The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA) introduced the Creative Sector Flex Fund (CSFF) in 2023-24 and is offering it again for the 2024-25 grant cycle. This grant is designed to address the changing needs of dynamic Pennsylvania arts organizations with average annual revenue between $10,000 and $200,000. The CSFF offers $5,000 grants for flexible use to support administrative, programmatic, and project-related expenses, ensuring significant impact for the organizations and their communities. Administered by Centre Foundation for Centre, Clearfield, Clinton, and Huntingdon Counties, the CSFF requires annual applications and promotes equitable access to arts funding following the retirement of PCA's Entry to Program Stream and Program Stream grant programs.
