Giving Back to the Local Arts
A unique element of Artisphere’s support for the local arts community is its Arts Partner Program, which provides local non-profit arts organizations with a portion of the proceeds from Artisphere in recognition of their assistance in recruiting the hundreds of volunteers needed to run the Festival each year. Since its inception in 2006, Artisphere has “regranted” $65,000 to local arts groups through the program.
