"Intermediary organizations, like mycelium, play a vital role in connecting, nourishing, and sustaining nonprofits and communities." –Vu Le, Nonprofit AF

In this webinar, Grantmakers in the Arts will explore intermediaries' evolution from their historical roots to their potential future roles. We will dive into their primary functions, examining these organizations' proximity to communities and their deep connections therein, and investigate their critical role in bridging the gap in funding and nurturing the roots of change. Are intermediaries truly the overlooked "middle child," and what identities are they clarifying in today's landscape?

Join Sage Crump (National Performance Network), Cate Fox (AmbitioUS), and Ron Ragin (MAP Fund) on Tuesday, July 16 at 2pm EDT/11am PDT for a discussion on the significance of membership versus network, the impact of dwindling institutional support, and shedding light on replicating systems of harm under the guise of benevolence.

This 90-minute webinar will include breakout room discussions for attendees.
