Virtual peer exchange | Wednesday July 23, 2025, 2 to 3:30 p.m. ET | 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. PT
As federal funding for arts and cultural programs is rescinded, organizations like yours are grappling with how to continue serving communities in need. At Candid, we recognize these challenges and want to create a space for arts organizations of all kinds to connect, share strategies, and learn from one another.
Join us for a virtual discussion with fellow nonprofit leaders working in the arts. This session will focus on how organizations are adapting to changes in federal funding, explore solutions to sustain critical services, and identify ways to support each other through these uncertain times.
What to Expect:
• A peer exchange on navigating federal funding shifts in the arts
• Real-world strategies from organizations facing similar challenges
• Insights on advocacy, alternative funding sources, and collaboration opportunities
