Fund for the Arts
Fund for the Arts is a non-profit organization based in Charleston, WV, dedicated to supporting and promoting the arts in the greater Kanawha Valley. Through their annual fundraising campaign and events like the Wine and Jazz Music Festival and the Capital Cocktail Classic, they provide financial support to 11 member art groups, including the Charleston Ballet, West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, and Children's Theatre of Charleston, ensuring a vibrant arts scene in the community. With a mission to enhance the cultural richness and economic growth of the region, Fund for the Arts raises funds from businesses, foundations, government, and individuals to provide operating expenses for their member art groups. Their Screening and Allocations Committee reviews applications and distributes funds to each group, ensuring a steady flow of income for their day-to-day operations. Led by their Executive Director, Sarah Wright, and a dedicated Board of Directors, Fund for the Arts plays a crucial role in sustaining the artistic culture in Charleston and its surrounding areas.Generated from the website
