Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide the services, support, and resources necessary to cultivate and ensure a thriving arts community in the Triangle region of North Carolina.
About This Cause
Since 2010, Triangle ArtWorks (TAW) has been building the platform, connections, expertise and momentum to not only provide the business support ecosytem the Triangle arts sector needs, but also change the way people think about those working in the arts - and the way those working in the arts think of themselves. An arts sector built on a workforce that is struggling financially and feeling unsupported in their work will not thrive. By building a stronger foundation for those working in the arts, we build a stronger, more sustainable arts community. Individual artists need access to business and professional training, networking, and other business resources to help them build sustainable and thriving businesses and career paths. Arts administrators need professional training to advance their careers, as well as peer networking to share best practices, ideas and struggles. Access to this support, in turn, makes these arts organizations stronger. TAW works with other arts organizations, as well as small business support and workforce development organizations and experts, to provide this support. Our work serves artists of all disciplines, for-profit arts businesses and nonprofit arts administrators at all career levels. Thus far, our programs include ArtSwell, which provides both short and long form professional business workshops and training; Peer support programs and networking events and happy hours, including SMASH! our annual arts party/business support event in January; fiscal Sponsorship, robust online business tools/resources and media platform to keep those working in the sector connected and informed. Bringing this community together around a supportive center coupled with our advocacy work, builds power and presence for this community as a vital economic sector in our Region. Our work helps create a more sustainable and more diverse arts sector in the Triangle, by helping all artists and arts organizations build financial sustainability.
