Repost from : We are thrilled to announce the recipients of the Leon Levy Foundation COVID Relief Fund. The creation of the Leon Levy Foundation COVID Relief Fund is named to honor the Leon Levy Foundation’s vision and commitment to supporting the arts in New York City. Through the Foundation’s support and with additional funding from the Edith Lutyens and Norman Bel Geddes Foundation, the Seth Sprague Foundation, and individual supporters, the Leon Levy Foundation COVID Relief Fund distributed $370,000 in emergency funding to 121 small theatres with annual budgets under $250k based in or primarily producing in New York City.

Here at A.R.T/New York, we want to ensure that the theatre field is thriving and continuously being seeded. We do this by removing barriers to access & funding. The necessity of that goal was brought on by the economic strain from the COVID-19 pandemic. With the help of the wonderful supporters above, we were able to award the most members under one funding program than what we have done before in A.R.T./New York's history! It is with great honor & pride that we announce the following 121 recipients of the fund in 2021! 🎊
