Inspire WA Culture Futures Tour 2024

Cultural Futures is a FREE funding, policy, and advocacy workshop for cultural businesses and supporters.

The 2025 Legislative Session is ramping up to be a BIG one! We anticipate many new objectives for each of our sectors—science, heritage, and the arts. Without new advocates and active engagement across the state, these large funding requests will be very challenging to secure. If you have thought about getting involved in the past but haven’t yet participated, now is the time! With Inspire Washington, cultural advocacy is easy, fun, collaborative, and inspiring!

On the agenda:

• New Funding & Policies – We will break down the wins and successes of the Legislative Session and the opportunities for your work.
• Overview of Washington’s Cultural Access Program and next steps for your community.
• Coalition Building – The 2025 Legislative Session is going to be huge for our sector and we will need to double our coalition of advocates to secure our big requests for science, heritage, and arts programs.
• Grant opportunities – ArtsWA, Humanities WA, USDA, community projects, Capital Funding, Federal Opportunities, and much more!
• Listening – What do you need and what should we advocates for? How do you get involved? It will take a broad coalition to secure future funding.
• About Our Coalition – Do you want to be more involved in policy development and advocacy or learn about partnership? We’ll plug you into future activities so that your community is represented.
