The Fullerton collaborates on projects and can serve as a fiscal sponsor for selected projects that celebrate Newburgh’s history and culture. Fiscal sponsorship is a formal arrangement in which The Fullerton can help individuals and emerging organizations raise funds using the Fullerton’s 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. Many funders only give their financial support to non-profit organizations, and by having The Fullerton as a fiscal sponsor you are opening up possibilities to access funding and make your work. If you’d like to talk to us about fiscal sponsorship opportunities, please contact us at TheFullertonCenter@gmail.com.
Below are some of the fabulous projects we’ve helped launch.
The Ethnomusicology of Newburgh
he Ethnomusicology of Newburgh project expands upon The Fullerton’s mission to recognize, celebrate, and protect the city’s diverse cultural heritage and places of significance. As the first large-scale study of Newburgh’s music traditions, the project explores both historical and living cultural practices, highlighting how they are deeply connected to community identity and place. Using music as a central lens, the project will identify and map sites of cultural importance—including historic venues, religious institutions, and influential individuals—while situating their stories within the broader historical development of the Hudson Valley.
