Grantmakers in the Arts

Grantmakers in the Arts (GIA) serves grantmakers by creating a forum for discourse about topics relevant to the arts. Programs and activities of GIA include: an annual conference which includes an Arts & Social Justice pre-conference; GIA Reader, which features articles on topics of interest to arts grantmakers; Phone Forums which are one-hour presentations on topics of interest to arts and culture funders; and research and publications. The GIA web site features Arts Funding Topics listing articles relating the arts to education, Native American concerns, social justice, individual artist support, advocacy, and public policy as well as emergency readiness, response and recovery.
