In 1979 a group of citizens established an organization which was committed to promoting and advocating for the arts in Pennsylvania. That organization became Citizens for the Arts in Pennsylvania (CFA/PA). Currently, CFA/PA is a statewide nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization committed to advancing the arts in Pennsylvania through advocacy, programs, and services. As Pennsylvania's only statewide multidisciplinary arts organization, we are uniquely positioned to make the case to the public and to policy makers. We work to publicize the contributions of the arts to society, increase public and private investment in the arts, expand the role of the arts in tourism, and promote the positive impact of arts education. We also work to support the strengthening arts organization infrastructure and the creation of a statewide network of those who create, manage, teach, and support the arts in Pennsylvania.
