Rhode Island Expansion Arts Program
The Rhode Island Expansion Arts Program (RIEAP) offers multi-year unrestricted funding and organizational assistance to community-based, arts and cultural organizations. This collaboration is supported by Rhode Island Foundation, RISCA, and Rhode Island Humanities. Currently paused.
The program supports small organizations whose missions center on the cultural practices and traditions. RIEAP provides the skills and tools these organizations need to grow as equal partners in the Rhode Island arts and cultural community. Priority is given to newly emerging groups. In seeking to build the capacity of these organizations, Rhode Island Expansion Arts Program recognizes the broader role they play in strengthening our communities. Funding fosters greater connections across arts and humanities. It also provides leadership and professional development for a broader network.
