Empower the Arts through NMAC
Donation protected
WE ARE NMAC, Northern Manhattan Arts &and Culture.
NMAC.NYC
We are a coalition of artists, cultural organizations, and community stakeholders committed to growing and supporting the cultural ecosystem of our Uptown communities of Washington Heights and Inwood.
Through our mission to Engage, Empower, Advocate, and Celebrate our arts and culture in our Northern Manhattan neighborhoods, NMAC creates a forum where local artists and organizations can exchange ideas, voice their needs, and expand their reach.
We convened 100 artists and community stakeholders at the Northern Manhattan Arts Summit to create the vision for our neighborhood's arts and culture agenda. Over the past year, we have engaged over 350 artists and arts consumers in our monthly meet-ups. We believe we can continue to empower and preserve our communities through our vibrant cultural life.
BUT we need your help!
We are calling on neighborhood heroes and New York City visionaries to support the bold and committed work of Northern Manhattan Arts, and Culture has begun. We are counting on local artists, community leaders, and art lovers to help us receive a 5:1 matching grant (that’s right-- QUINTUPLING
our goal!) to support the arts and culture in our neighborhoods through 2017 and beyond. 100% of our steering committee has personally donated money to this cause, along with untold hours of grass root efforts to put this initiative in action and carry it forth. Please join us in making the arts a centerpiece of our communities!
