Art, Culture & Humanities

Arts, Culture, Humanities charities promote artistic and cultural excellence and preserve artistic and cultural heritage. Arts, Cultural and Humanities institutions, including the visual and performing arts, and historical societies represent nearly 11% of public charities that report to the IRS. Expansion of the arts has increasingly become a strategic focus for the economic development of cities and a measurable factor in the quality of life. Projects in the arts, culture, and humanities can play a significant role in advancing full participation if they enable all stakeholders to thrive, succeed, and realize their capabilities. These fields can be powerful vehicles for connecting, educating, inspiring, and sustaining students, faculty, and community members so they have the capacity and commitment to continue their difficult and important work.
