Art-Train ARP 1-pager Springboard for the Arts has designed a pdf to aid in advocacy and awareness as you reach out for funding and community building support. Much ARP funding is directed to local governments and ARP fund deciders who may not have arts & culture on their radar as a successful strategy/allowable use of recovery funds – nor are they likely to take a training. You might send it directly, and/or include it with other materials you might be preparing. Link to PDF |
