Everyone is invited to gather on Thursday, March 21st 2024 for Funding Creativity, an event hosted by the Elk County Council on the Arts, at the ECCOTA Gallery.

Funding Creativity will be a showcase of the programs and opportunities for local artists through ECCOTA’s partnership with the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. The Elk County Council on the Arts is one of 14 partner organizations with the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, servicing Elk, McKean, Potter, Cameron, and Forest Counties. Artists from those counties are encouraged to attend the event.

Funding Creativity will be a chance for interested artists to get together and learn about granting and residency opportunities through ECCOTA. As well as a networking opportunity for artists, rostered teaching artists, and grant recipients will be in attendance to answer questions and engage in discussion with attendees and give testimony to their success with these programs.

Our gallery is located at 237 Main St. here in down town Ridgway, Pennsylvania. Join ECCOTA from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Refreshments will be provided.

Any questions regarding the Funding Creativity event or the grant and programming opportunities can be directed to ECCOTA at (814) 772-7051, or info@eccota.com.
