Building the capacity of creative professionals to
lead tomorrow's nonprofit art sector

The Creative Capacity Fund (CCF) is a collaborative initiative designed by a consortium of California arts funders to strengthen the work of artists and arts administrators by providing them with access to a wide range of professional development and peer learning opportunities.

Administered by the Center for Cultural Innovation, CCF was conceived as a proactive response to the economic downturn, changing demographics, and looming leadership transitions that are placing extraordinary strain on the nonprofit arts system, and the people who work in it. Over the next several years, the Creative Capacity Fund will implement a series of capacity building programs, beginning with a Professional Development Funding Program that enables eligible applicants, including individual artists and arts administrators to attend workshops, conferences and other training opportunities locally and nationally that will build their knowledge and administrative skills.

The Creative Capacity Fund partners include the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, Grants for the Arts/San Francisco Hotel Tax Fund, San Francisco Arts Commission, The San Francisco Foundation and San José Office of Cultural Affairs.
