Abstract
While the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant damage to the American economy as a whole, the nonprofit arts sector has suffered particularly stunning losses. With cancelled programming, uncertain future plans, and fewer willing donors, nonprofit leaders must shift financial strategies, or their organizations will not survive the pandemic. This paper examines conclusions from the body of nonprofit research to provide simple, practical fundraising solutions for struggling arts nonprofits. Building an effective fundraising strategy during troubled times will provide a lasting foundation for financial and artistic success.
