Sustainability Many of the artists who were awarded grants continue to have a positive impact on their communities as a result of their experiences. Sixty-three percent of artists have continued their projects beyond the grant period. Many have sought new opportunities and created "encore" careers as well.

For example, one hundred percent of nonprofits collaborating with a senior artist reported the artist provided an important and unique therapeutic or educational opportunity for the people they serve.
