Arts Program
Arts is one of five issue areas that CCF focuses on in its competitive grantmaking program. Learn about our arts program goals and grantees selected in the past year. Go to Arts Program
Support the Arts
Arts funding continues to be one of the first areas to be cut in hard economic times. CCF created the Arts & Culture Fund, an endowed fund to support small-to-midsize arts and cultural organizations and individual artists. Your contribution can help organizations and artists to focus on their creative passion and inspire new audiences. Go to Arts and Culture Fund
