Strengthening Artists and Organizations. Elevating the People and Places of Memphis.
In fiscal year 2021, ArtsMemphis awarded $2.2 million through 158 grants to 64 organizations and hundreds of artists.
ArtsMemphis is proud to serve as the conduit between generous donors and the ingenious arts organizations and artists across our community. We play a critical role in helping the arts sector navigate pandemic impacts by providing financial support and serving as a convener and connector. Our investment in people, processes and programming make our arts community stronger and more accessible. We are a resource as arts organizations and artists work to create enhanced business models, re-open, and develop new opportunities for virtual and in-person arts experiences. A list of our 2021 donors can be found here.
