Funding for Arts Month — A Great Success!
The staff of the Foundation Center's Atlanta library/learning center wishes to thank the presenters and panelists who contributed their time and expertise during this year's Funding for Arts Month. We would also like to thank all of you who attended our special programs throughout October.

Even if you weren't able to attend Arts Month events, you can still catch some of the presenters at our online Events Archive, including these podcasts of interviews with leaders in the arts:

  • Adam Natale of Fractured Atlas, a national nonprofit organization serving a national community of artists and arts organizations
  • Lila Kanner of Artadia, a nonprofit organization providing visual artists in specific communities with unrestricted awards and a national network of support
  • Lynn Basa, author of the book How to Find and Win Public Art Commissions.
