Surdna Foundation
The Surdna Foundation seeks to foster just and sustainable communities in the United States—communities guided by principles of social justice and distinguished by healthy environments, strong local economies, and thriving cultures. Through the Thriving Cultures priority area, the Foundation is currently accepting letters of inquiry for the Teens Artistic Advancement initiative. This initiative aims to stimulate fresh thinking and new approaches to address the isolation and lack of opportunities for artistic advancement for young people from disadvantaged communities. Support will be provided to nonprofit organizations that offer programs where young people have long-term opportunities to create art with accomplished artists, often resulting in strong mentoring relationships, as well as organizations that create professional artistic development opportunities for staff. Letters of inquiry may be submitted at any time. Visit the Foundation’s website for more information on the Teens Artistic Advancement initiative.
