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.
For more than 12 years, Maryland Philanthropy Network has led a learning agenda around racial equity for our members. Part peer-exchange, part workshop, this program is designed for members to learn from several colleague organizations about their racial equity journeys, reflect on where your organization is in its journey, and unearth insights to take into your own work. The peer exchange will include discussion of building buy-in from the board and navigating differences between staff and board on this issue. We’ll also explore ideas around future MPN activities and what offerings/supports will help move you along your journey.
