Support NYFA

Connecting Inspiration to Art.

During the current COVID-19 pandemic, all of us at NYFA are doing our part to mitigate the virus’ impact on the creative community here in New York City and beyond. We remain committed to supporting our constituents in all the ways we can, to ensure that they have access to the resources they need to persevere.

Since closing NYFA’s office to the public in March 2020, our dedicated board and staff are working remotely to adapt our programs and services to meet the current needs of the creative community. We continue to offer resources and support to artists in additional to new emergency funding. At this critical juncture in our nation’s history, our work is vital to ensuring that artists, who are economically vulnerable, continue to have a voice in our society.

You can show your support by making a contribution of any dollar amount. Your funding is crucial at this time, as it will help us continue to provide resources to artists who are hurting economically during this crisis. There has truly never been a more important time to give.
