Fiscal Sponsorship Opportunities
​We have partnered with New York based non-profit Pentacle to provide opportunities for A.C.A Members to receive fiscal sponsorship. Fiscal sponsorship is a formal arrangement in which a 501(c)(3) provides sponsorship to artists & arts projects that may lack exempt status. This alternative to starting your own non-profit allows artists to seek grants and solicit tax-deductible donations under their sponsor's exempt status.

As a Member of the Association of Career Artists, you will have the option to "opt in" to Pentacle's basic sponsorship program, Unique Projects at no extra fee. 
​
All services provided by Pentacle are scheduled & managed by the Unique Projects Administrator and ultimate approved acceptance into Unique Projects will be at the sole discretion of Pentacle.
