2018 Grant Awards
In its inaugural year, The Sachs Program was able to support twenty-three projects, distributing a total of $123,000 in arts funding to a diverse spectrum of artists, scholars and cultural centers at Penn. These grants are the first steps in our long-term plans to advocate for the arts across the university.
