We are thrilled to announce a new initiative: the Small Pittsburgh Arts Coalition for Equity (SPACE)
We are SPACE: eight small visual arts organizations in Pittsburgh that have come together to make our field more equitable, visible, and sustainable. We are committed to collectively sharing resources and ideas, advocating for each other, and fostering new collaborations. While we retain our own missions, we will unify our voices to challenge the systemic inequity that has persevered in the visual arts. We know that we will have a greater impact by combining our resources and energies. 

​We are grateful to announce that SPACE has been awarded more than $100,000 in grants through the Arts Equity Reimagined Fund. This funding will allow us to further develop our coalition and to create a new program to build equity in the arts, the SPACE Fellowship. This Fellowship is a paid arts leadership training program designed to support people who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA, and others who have been marginalized by our field. The SPACE Fellowship will provide coaching, mentorship, networking opportunities, and hands on professional growth experiences from all of the SPACE organizations. A call for applications for the SPACE Fellowship will be announced through all the member organizations in the late spring.
