Funding for local arts and artists through the local, state and federal agencies
SSPA receives thousands of dollars of funding every year from the Nevada Arts Council, which is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Nevada Legislature. Programs we offer within the city limits of Reno, such as our annual youth musical in December, are funded in part by the City of Reno Arts and Culture Commission. If you enjoy and have benefited from SSPA's programs, please let your government representatives know! To learn more about funding for the arts, visit the websites below.
