What this organization describes

Accelerating Silicon Valley's creative culture.

SVCreates is dedicated to accelerating the creative culture of Silicon Valley. Our work is focused on building the capacity of our creative ecosystem, raising the community's awareness and value of arts and creativity, and increasing equitable access to creative experiences. We offer workshops and training programs for arts professionals, designed to strengthen skills in fundraising, marketing, financial management and other administrative functions; and provide funding for a portfolio of roughly 100 small and mid-sized multi-cultural non-profit organizations, artists, and creative professionals. Additionally, we deliver a variety of programs that serve Santa Clara County's at-risk youth and seniors, low-income families, and thousands of residents and visitors who enjoy our bi-monthly publication and monthly events through Content Magazine.
