Pennsylvania Partners In The Arts
The Bradford County Regional Arts Council (BCRAC) is proud to have been selected by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA) to facilitate the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (PPA) Program. PPA is a small grants program that allows regional partners throughout the state to work with the PCA to make a significant impact on arts and cultural opportunities at a local level. Funding for the PPA program comes from the citizens of Pennsylvania through an annual state appropriation by the Legislature and from a federal grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
PPA funds support arts and cultural activities occurring between September 1 - August 31 of each program year. Funds are available to prior applicants/recipients as well as to new applicants for projects within the BCRAC service area: Bradford, Columbia, Lycoming, Sullivan, Susquehanna, Tioga & Wyoming counties. Grant requests may not exceed $3,000.
For more information, grant writing questions/counseling or assistance please contact BCRAC's PPA administrator Jen Swain at 570-268-ARTS (2787) or jen@bcrac.org
Applications are via e-GRANT; visit http://pca.egrant.org for guidelines and due dates. Applicants are required to submit signed, hard copies and supplemental materials to: BCRAC, attention Jen Swain, 601 Main Street, Towanda, PA 18848.
Applications are evaluated on a local level by a Review Panel comprised of community volunteers representing the seven counties served. For the 2011-2012 program year, over $32,000 was re-granted throughout the Northern Tier in support of local arts programming.
