The City of Philadelphia Office of Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy is pleased to announce the launch of its Creative Avenues initiative! 

Creative Avenues provides funding between $250–$1,000 to community-based groups in support of creative activities, by Philadelphia-based artists, that are community driven, free, and open to the public.  

Whether you are looking to include performing artists or art-making experiences in a neighborhood event, or your community is coming together to create a collaborative work of art, Creative Avenues can provide support to cover artists’ fees as part of your project. 

Applications for the Fall/Winter round of funding is now open for events occurring between September 2019 – February 2020. Applications are due by Friday, August 2, 2019.
