Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance
The Cultural Alliance is an Arts and Culture membership and advocacy organization.
The 2010 Annual Report says:
"We are in a battle for the health and future of our region. As we begin FY11, the Alliance — with the help of its members — will fight this battle on three fronts:
Policy Engagement
Our goal is to ensure that cultural organizations are supported by policy that helps them contribute to regional growth.
We will:
- Complete data analysis for the 2011 Portfolio, which will include more organizations, and examine the effect of the recession on arts & cultural organizations
- Expand community-based cultural organizing efforts throughout the region
- Ensure that arts and culture play a role in state and local election cycles, particularly the election of a new Pennsylvania Governor
Personal Engagement
Our goal is to gain more patrons and partners, so we need them to be more deeply engaged.
We will:
- Release the next Cultural Engagement Index (CEI) which will document changes in consumer engagement around personal creative practice, arts attendance, and arts education
- Update Phillyfunguide and Funsavers with expanded content and more user-friendly and accessible features
- Offer professional development opportunities to help members use engagement to build stronger relationships with participants
