    Summary

    Youth Arts Enrichment (YAE) grants support specific programming that uses the arts to enrich the lives of young people, aged 5 to 18, in and out of school. The goal of this program is to provide high quality arts instruction, training, and participatory experiences to young people (aged 5 to 18) who are most unlikely to access cultural enrichment through other avenues. This includes programming in Philadelphia's most underserved, impoverished communities.
     

    History of Funding

    None is available.

    Additional Information

    Grant funds can support both Direct and Indirect Program Expenses.
    • Direct Program Expenses are those necessary to operate the specific youth arts program, such as program staff, artistic expenses, production costs, equipment, and materials. Direct Program Expenses must represent at least 90% of the Program Budget.
    • Indirect Program Expenses are those costs associated with administration and facilities to operate the youth arts program, such as rent and cleaning. Indirect Program Expenses cannot exceed 10% of the Program Budget. Those that exceed 10% will be disqualified.
    Grant funds may not be requested for or used to fund the organization's general operating expenses. For example, a potter's wheel used in a pottery program is a direct expense and is eligible, but a photocopier is not.
