The Fairmount Park Art Association is one of twelve local arts and cultural organizations to receive a 2011 grant from the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage through the Philadelphia Cultural Management Initiative (PCMI).

This generous grant will support a capacity-building project that will leverage the power of social and mobile media to creatively involve audiences through interactive and content-rich engagement with public art. Building on the success of the Art Association’s award-winning Museum Without Walls™: AUDIO interpretive program (which is available by cell phone, audio download, streaming audio, online slideshows, or as a mobile app), this grant will help the Art Association implement an innovative and sustainable social media strategy that initiates and supports ongoing dialogues with public art audiences.
