While the festival is still\u2014as the organization\u2019s Executive Director Stephanie Owens explains\u2014 a celebration of \u201cthe beauty of Black art,\u201d it has since shifted its work to produce year-round programming like an arts education program, as well as artistic development opportunities for emerging artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have deep roots in our community,\u201d says Owens. The vision of the National Black Arts Festival is to create a world where Black voices and artists are celebrated, highlighted and uplifted. With a small, but mighty, team of four full-time employees and four consultants, the organization works hard to carry out that mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><div class=\"quote-container scroll-watch\">\t\n            <svg width=\"72px\" height=\"52px\" viewBox=\"0 0 72 52\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\">\n                <g stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"1\" fill=\"none\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\">\n                    <g transform=\"translate(-405.000000, -1977.000000)\" fill=\"#02B5CC\">\n                        <g transform=\"translate(350.000000, 1278.000000)\">\n                            <g transform=\"translate(55.000000, 647.000000)\">\n                                <path d=\"M40.3135498,103.84 L40.3135498,83.2493458 C40.3135498,59.0250467 61.5991041,52.3633645 72,52 L72,62.9009346 C63.5341545,63.8699065 58.212766,68.1091589 57.7290034,76.708785 L72,76.708785 L72,103.84 L40.3135498,103.84 Z M0,103.84 L0,83.2493458 C0,59.0250467 21.2855543,52.3633645 31.6864502,52 L31.6864502,62.9009346 C23.2206047,63.8699065 17.8992161,68.1091589 17.4154535,76.708785 L31.6864502,76.708785 L31.6864502,103.84 L0,103.84 Z\"><\/path>\n                            <\/g>\n                        <\/g>\n                    <\/g>\n                <\/g>\n            <\/svg>\n    \t\t\t<h2>Throughout the pandemic, we could not have survived without the glimmers of hope provided by the arts.<\/h2>\n    \t\t<\/div><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, like so many organizations over the past two years, the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the National Black Arts Festival. \u201cWe had to pivot like everyone else,\u201d Owens explains, \u201cwe took our public programs virtual. For instance, we conducted virtual tours of artist studios and featured online arts installation trainings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Owens and the National Black Arts Festival not only survived these difficult times, they thrived and innovated. The organization created their own COVID-19 relief fund. \u201cWe used this fund to support artists financially,\u201d Owens says, \u201cbut we also helped them bring their projects to life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to their COVID-19 relief, one of their signature programs is their artist project fund which gives much-needed financial and community support to young and emerging Black artists. In fact, the wildly popular project has already seen nearly 150 applicants in 2022 alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to efforts like these, particularly when funding equity in the philanthropic sector feels more urgent than ever, organizations like the National Black Arts Festival represent an impactful giving opportunity. As Owens puts it, \u201cOur work is important as ever today.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>While there is still work to be done, Owens says, \u201cWe are excited about more equity in the donor gifts and the role that donor-advised funds (DAFs) can play in leveling the funding playing field.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPeople think of the arts as extra, but it is a must,\u201d Owens adds. \u201cThe arts document our struggle and our resilience. It gives us an outlet and a voice that is often unheard and silenced. The arts are crucial to our existence. Throughout the pandemic we could not have survived without the glimmers of hope provided by the arts. The arts are a vehicle for change I think there is nothing that arts can\u2019t change and touch.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><small><em>NPT is not affiliated with any of the organizations described herein, and the inclusion of any organization in this material should not be considered an endorsement by NPT of such organization, or its services or products.\u202f<\/em><\/small><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><small><em>NPT does not provide legal or tax advice.
