Arts Services Inc.

Empowering the Western New York arts and cultural sector.

At Arts Services Inc, we provide the tools and resources you need for a successful career in the arts – whether you are an arts administrator, manager, or a working artist.  ASI enhances and contributes to the rich cultural sector of WNY to support a thriving industry.

We focus in four main areas of service for our area artists and arts and cultural organizations:

  • Professional Development
  • Resources
  • Representation and Advocacy
  • Access, Equity, and Inclusion

Arts Services Inc. provides direct services and funding to a diverse range of artists and arts and culture organizations throughout Western New York – offering support to Erie, Niagara, Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, and Allegany counties and the Native nations that share this geography. We believe that a strong arts sector is vital to the cultural and economic health of our region. By connecting artists with funding opportunities, professional development, and community access, we help to foster a thriving and inclusive creative community.

Are you an artist and need assistance or advice? Maybe you work at a non-profit arts and cultural organization and want to connect to other professionals in the community? Attend one of our workshops and learn more about the business-side of art! Contact us by calling 716-833-3004 or email us at [email protected] to see how we can help you or work together.

If you’ve followed us for a long time, this is the best way to be the first to know when SCR and Give for Greatness opportunities are open so you can have the most time to complete your application. You’ll also be the first to know about any upcoming professional development workshops or classes that will help you in your career.
