Description
The Creative Sector Flex Fund (CSFF), introduced by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA) for the 2023-2024 period, is available again for the 2024-2025 cycle. It targets Pennsylvania arts organizations with annual revenue between $10,000 and $200,000. This $5,000 grant offers flexibility to grantees, allowing them to use funds for administrative, programmatic, and project-related expenses to ensure significant impacts on their organizations and communities. The program supports eligible applicants consistently providing artistic programming or arts services in Pennsylvania. Applications will open on June 1, 2024, and close on October 1, 2024.
The PCA has retired the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts’ (PPA) Entry to Program Stream and Program Stream grant programs, focusing on aligning with industry trends and strategic goals through the CSFF.
