Investing in the Creative Workforce

About the Program

Some of the most valuable assets within the arts are the employees of organizations like yours. We are invested in building a platform of support for the arts community. Investing in the Creative Workforce, a pilot program supported by the Clowes Fund and additonally supported by The Braver Group, is our latest initiative to fulfill that mission. This human resources program addresses the needs of cultural organizations and their employees by:

  • Increasing HR compliance through direct legal services and HR consulting
  • Creating educational webinars and workshops for senior staff on HR best practice
  • Increasing access to employment benefits, such as retirement, disability and life insurance, and employee assistance programs
