Tri-M Foundation Announces Recipients Of The Performing Arts Grant Program

Tri-M Foundation has announced the recipients for the third cycle of its Performing Arts Grant Program. Launched in 2020, the Performing Arts Grant Program supports the development and presentation of innovative, high-quality performing arts projects, events, and festivals by regional non-profit arts organizations. Dozens of arts organizations submitted applications, and six were awarded this cycle.

"There were so many excellent applications this year, too many for us to fund them all, and we went back and forth on the finalists," said Zachary Christman, president of the Tri-M Foundation board of directors. "The funded projects represent a diverse array of talents, regions, and voices."

Awards ranged from $2,300 to $10,000 each. To learn more about the Performing Arts Grant program, performing arts organizations with an active 501(c)(3) are encouraged to visit the website. The application deadline for the next round of funding is February 15, 2023.
