Pennsylvania: Orientation Webinar for Decentralized Grant Panel

The Pennsylvania Council on the Arts (PCA) is offering a series of webinars for panelists serving on the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (PPA). The PPA is a decentralized funding partnership between local organizations and PCA. With 16 partners and operating in all 67 counties in Pennsylvania, the PPA supports a wide variety of local and community arts activities. In the past, PCA’s funding partners would conduct orientation at their individual panel meetings. PCA developed this series of orientation webinars to communicate directly with panelists, deliver a standardized set of instructions, and save time and money at the partner level by providing orientation before panels convene in person.
