Our Programs

We provide funding to support artists and organizations that expand access to the arts, foster community connections, and strengthen the creative sector. Made possible through private donations from our generous supporters, these grants help sustain a vibrant, inclusive arts community across the region.

We champion Cape Cod’s creatives.

There are laptops, a tablet, and books on a weathered wooden coffee table, and a ladder and tripod are in the background.

Through funding, visibility, and meaningful support, we help artists grow, connect, and thrive — so our communities can too.

We invest in our region’s cultural heartbeat.

Through grants, resources, and advocacy, we strengthen the theaters, museums, and nonprofits that keep creativity alive across our region.

We believe the arts belong to everyone.

Through Arts Access, we remove financial barriers so people of all ages—especially children—can experience, create, and be inspired by the arts.

We celebrate artistic excellence.

We advocate for Cape Cod arts.

At the local, state, and national levels to ensure that arts and culture remains a vital part of our community.

We promote artists and events.
