Materials for the Arts

Materials for the Arts (MFTA), created by the Department of Cultural Affairs in 1978, has provided thousands of organizations with the materials they need to support and expand their programs. Headquartered in a spacious warehouse in Long Island City, MFTA collects reusable items from a host of reliable donors, and distributes them free of charge to non-profit arts organizations, City agencies, public schools, and social, health and community service organizations that have arts programs in New York City.  In 2008, MFTA received 2334 donations totaling more than $6 million, and had 5,345 transactions to registered groups.
