SHARED SERVICES
ArtsBuild supports the arts community with shared services that address different needs across our local arts sector for resources and services such as legal assistance, human resources, healthcare, back office, and other training and tools. ArtsBuild currently facilitates these services for non-profit organizations we fund.
Circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic have impacted the arts sector and in some cases have placed strain on the administrative and operational capacity of our local arts organizations, increasing a need for access to services and resources like these. Proudly, most of the vendors we have chosen to work with to provide these shared services are local minority or women-owned businesses.
