We also offer consulting services and opportunities to collaborate with partner organizations in serving the field of traditional arts at the local, state, and national level.

Past Programs

Community Leadership Project

The Community Leadership Project (CLP) ran from 2010 to 2017, and was supported by a joint partnership between the David & Lucile Packard, James Irvine, and William & Flora Hewlett foundations.  It supported financial stability and leadership development for small and midsize organizations serving low-income people and communities of color in the San Joaquin Valley.
