Join Patricia Wilson Aden from the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance and Laurie Zierer of PA Humanities for a timely conversation on the findings from PA CultureCheck 2025. This report reveals a sector that is critical to our community vitality but facing serious risks from federal funding disruptions, rising costs, lack of sustained investment, and lagging recognition. Aden and Zierer will share key takeaways for funders, with an emphasis on the Greater Philadelphia region. Participants will hear directly from cultural leaders about how funding cuts are affecting their organizations, programs, and communities, along with perspectives on philanthropic strategies that will most effectively address the sector’s immediate and longer-term challenges.
