Introduction

For many decades, the Performing Arts Program has held a value for multiyear general operating support as a primary means for helping nonprofit organizations achieve long-term impact. We have a presumption that a grant will be multiyear GOS, as long as the organization’s mission closely aligns with Program’s strategic framework. Multiyear GOS is especially important for arts grantees, because it provides reliable and flexible financial capital that is essential for taking artistic risks.
