USA Projects is a program of United States Artists (USA), a nonprofit grant making and artist advocacy organization that has awarded $15 million to America’s finest artists in the last six years. USA hosts an online community at www.usaprojects.org where artists can post projects and connect with those who love and support the arts.

The Bronx Council on the Arts is now a USA Projects Partner.
What does this mean for you?
The Bronx Council on the Arts (BCA) is pleased to announce that we are now a Project Partner with United States Artists (USA), whose mission is to invest in America's finest artists and illuminate the value of artists to society. USA is a Los Angeles-based grantmaking, artist-advocacy organization dedicated to supporting artists working across diverse disciplines. USA has actively examined strategies to invest in more artists and increase awareness of artists in America beyond their successful USA Fellows program. These efforts led to the creation of USA Projects. 

This partnership means that as an award winner/grantee, you may now participate in USA Projects, the first online fundraising platform and social network designed exclusively to connect accomplished artists with those who love the arts. As a member of USA Projects, you can raise money for your projects from both your network and an ever expanding community of arts lovers. We have a robust matching fund program, tremendous individual support, and a 75% success rate (which exceeds our competitors by 30%).
