Community Invests Over $10 Million In the Arts

People all across our community will learn today how their support of the arts contributes to a significant investment in the creative things happening all over our region.

The Fine Arts Fund announced that community volunteers approved distributing $10.3 million to support the music, dance, museums, theatre, and other arts events and experiences all over the area. This investment is possible thanks to the support of thousands of people who contributed to the annual community campaign for the arts.

Community residents and our neighborhoods benefit in many ways from the arts. Arts organizations—like theaters, museums, and art centers—create vital neighborhoods and energized communities where people want to live, work, play, and stay. Music, storytelling, and dancing bring people together—connecting with each other, sharing ideas, and understanding each other in new ways.
