| Our Mission:
The Fund for the Arts’
mission is to increase revenues for the arts and to enable
our community to become the preeminent regional arts center
in the United States and to maximize the impact of the arts
on overall economic development, education of our children
and the enjoyment of living in our community. We accomplish
our mission through the enhancements and preservation of
resources by providing excellent service.
Our History:
The Fund for the Arts is the oldest united arts fund in the country and has raised over $157 million since its establishment in 1949. The 2009 campaign raised over $8.8 million, a long way from its first campaign in 1949, of $99,000. Today the Fund provides financing, facilities and administrative support for twenty-seven area arts groups and programs. In addition, over 200 community access grants are awarded annually to community groups and schools in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Other Fund sponsored activities include the annual Whittenberg Young Artist Scholarship.
