The Pew Charitable Trusts today announces the Philadelphia Center for Arts and Heritage, the new home to the Trusts' dance, theatre, visual arts, music, heritage, artist fellowships, and cultural management initiatives. In addition to the practical benefits of bringing the initiatives under one roof, the Center for Arts and Heritage will foster artistic creativity and excellence and keep Philadelphia on the leading edge of the arts world.
Over the past ten years, the Trusts has invested more than $150 million in cultural organizations and activities in the Philadelphia region to bring together artistic creativity with operational effectiveness and greater audience access. Since 1997, the Trusts has provided more than $50 million to support local artists and organizations through the cultural initiatives that now comprise the Center for Arts and Heritage, resulting in an average of 500 performances, exhibitions and other public programs each year. In the past year the Trusts' support for these cultural initiatives totaled approximately $7.8 million.
