Impactful Policy Frameworks
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) – NEA Funding (2021)
The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 allocated $135 million to the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to support the arts and culture sector's recovery from the pandemic.
This policy provided crucial grant funding opportunities for non-profit arts organizations like ArtsWestchester, supporting operational stability and program expansion.
Charitable Act (H.R. 5262) (Proposed 2023)
The Charitable Act (H.R. 5262) proposes to restore and expand the universal charitable deduction, allowing all taxpayers, regardless of itemization, to deduct charitable contributions.
If enacted, this policy could incentivize greater individual donations, positively impacting ArtsWestchester's funding through increased philanthropic giving.
New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA) Reinvestment (Ongoing)
NYSCA continues to reinvest significant state funding into arts and cultural organizations across New York, emphasizing accessibility and community engagement.
ArtsWestchester, as a regional regranter for NYSCA, directly benefits from and distributes these funds, enhancing its grant programs for local artists and organizations.
