New York Foundation for the Arts

Established in 1971, the mission of the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) is to empower artists in all disciplines, as well as cultural workers, to achieve success on their own terms by providing critical support, resources, and opportunities. NYFA envisions a world where artists thrive in the practice and expression of their creative work, a world that celebrates and supports them. Our work centers on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility, which is served through four flagship programs: Learning, Awards & Grants, Fiscal Sponsorship, and Online Resources. We serve approximately 1M constituents in person and online, annually.
