It’s time for Maryland Philanthropy Network’s peer learning exchange for arts and culture funders! This year, we’ll gather over a cuppa for a lightly structured peer-to-peer exchange on a handful of topics, including the Maryland State Arts Council's new Arts Capital grant program. We’ll also discuss some group “business” like the possibility of doing a comprehensive grant survey. We encourage you to bring your burning questions, strategic ponderings or interesting projects to raise with the group.

This is the second session of a 6-part webinar series on Demystifying Trust-Based Philanthropy focused on addressing common questions, clarifying misconceptions, and exploring ways to overcome obstacles in implementing trust-based philanthropy. In this session, we’ll unpack the difference between unrestricted funding that is deployed in a trust-based way, and what it looks like when it’s not. We’ll also share case studies from funders who have shifted from project-specific to majority unrestricted funding, as well as those who have embedded trust-based values within semi-restricted grants. Participants can expect to gain greater clarity on the philosophy behind unrestricted funding in a trust-based context, and strategies for aligning trust-based values with the way grants are structured and deployed.
