Funding Resources for Artists
Cultural Alliance of York County: Artist Relief Fund
"The Cultural Alliance York Artist Relief Fund will award grants of up to $500 to individual artists who live in York County whose creative practices and incomes are being adversely impacted by Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19).
The York County Artist Relief Fund will be open on a rolling basis and will replace the Artist Professional Development Grant for the rest of 2020 (3rd and 4th Quarter)."
SBA and CARES Act Funding programs
"Our nation's small businesses are facing an unprecedented economic disruption due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. On Friday, March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the CARES Act, which contains $376 billion in relief for American workers and small businesses.
In addition to traditional SBA funding programs, the CARES Act established several new temporary programs to address the COVID-19 outbreak."
Artist Relief
"Artist Relief is an initiative organized by the Academy of American Poets, Artadia, Creative Capital, Foundation for Contemporary Arts, MAP Fund, National YoungArts Foundation, and United States Artists—all small to mid-sized national arts grantmakers—that have come together in this unprecedented moment ... Artist Relief will distribute $5,000 grants to artists facing dire financial emergencies due to COVID-19"
