The arts are at a crossroads. As we enter 2025, the uncertainty surrounding arts and cultural funding threatens the very institutions that give our communities life, creativity, and a sense of belonging. Across the country, support for the arts is being questioned, and organizations like the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts must fight harder than ever to preserve and sustain the cultural fabric that connects us all. Now more than ever, we need your support. To ensure the arts continue to flourish, we are launching Keep the Arts Alive in 2025, an initiative dedicated to sustaining and expanding GVCA’s programs through donor and sponsor support.
