Fiscal Sponsorship for Artists

Many grants and donors can only give to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Fiscal sponsorship lets an individual artist or community project receive those funds without starting a nonprofit of their own. LiberArte, a New York nonprofit, offers fiscal sponsorship to artist-led and community-rooted projects that align with our mission.

What fiscal sponsorship does for you

• Your supporters can make tax-deductible donations to your project.
• You can apply for grants that require a 501(c)(3) sponsor.
• We steward the funds, so you can focus on the work.

What sponsored projects receive from LiberArte

• Access to all of our online courses on grant writing and strategic planning.
• Four mini consultations a year with our team.
• A private portal with your sponsorship details, donation form, and sponsorship letter.
• Canva Pro for Nonprofits, requested through our team.

Who it's for

Artists and projects whose work aligns with our mission of nurturing artists co-creating joyful and abundant futures in harmony with each other and mother Earth. You do not need to be a registered organization.

How to apply

Fill out our fiscal sponsorship application. We review applications on a rolling basis and will reach out if there is alignment. Submitting does not guarantee sponsorship.
