Join Maryland Philanthropy Network for a peer learning exchange for arts and culture funders! In the past year we’ve learned about the Financial Impact of COVID on the Arts in Maryland, Supporting Leaders of Color in the Arts and Creative Economy in Maryland, and Arts Grantmakers’ Changes in Practice and Sharing Session. We’ll now take some time to integrate our learnings, share what we are thinking about and focusing on, and discuss our plans for the coming year.
Join us for our February First Monday + Election Series Discussion where we will share insights and data points uncovered from the Funders' Committee for Civic Participation's (FCCP) first State Funding Survey.

We’ll also discuss how well philanthropy is looking at ourselves.
