Funding Equity in Arts and Culture

Equity in arts and cultural funding is more urgent now than ever. We advocate for significant increases in funding across the board, with additional resources being directed to where they are currently most lacking. The end result must be that in New York City, communities of color and the organizations serving them all have the same level of resources as do wealthier white communities. Below, we share our equity statement and letters.

Cultural Advocacy Project

The LxNY Cultural Advocacy Project is a research and capacity-building initiative that will inform and strengthen LxNY’s advocacy strategy and help define the next steps toward developing and implementing an Advocacy Agenda that engages with arts and cultural policy and affects the conditions affecting  Latinx arts and cultural organizations. Stay tuned for the release of our upcoming Cultural Advocacy Project Report.
