Organization
Voices of the South
Founded in 1995, Voices of the South is a Memphis based non-profit theatre company that creates, produces, and tours homegrown works of theatre that give voice to the southern perspective. VOTS also promotes literacy through their local and national touring program. The company's extensive touring repertoire includes original plays and adaptations of literature from celebrated regional authors. For the past twelve years the company has performed these works and led theatre workshops/residencies in K-12 schools and colleges and universities throughout the state of Tennessee. The company has also worked in Mid-South senior centers, the Memphis/Shelby County library system, the Lichterman Nature Center, and with COFI, a West Memphis-based non-profit organization whose mission is to provide a safe and educational environment for disadvantaged youth from high crime neighborhoods.

About ArtsMemphis
Known around the world for its blues and rock and roll, Memphis has a recognizable special vibe. ArtsMemphis exists to nurture this unique character and to magnify the city’s creative voice. We are a 45-year-old arts funding organization (the sixth largest in the United States), which provides annual operating and project support to 23 arts groups and administers some 150 additional grants on a year to year basis. The ArtsMemphis tagline is “your support matters” and indeed it does. As major fundraisers, grant-makers and arts promoters in the city, ArtsMemphis contributed more than $4 million to the Memphis arts community in 2007, and it is a fact that 95 cents of every dollar raised in our annual campaign is directed to our funded organizations. ArtsMemphis builds partnerships among artists, arts groups, donors, educators and culture lovers throughout the city and region. Recognizing that a lively arts scene has a major economic impact and is essential to the quality of life in Memphis, ArtsMemphis is encouraging the entire community to interact with the arts like never before. The current enhanced website with its expanded calendar of events has been introduced with that goal in mind.
