ArtsMemphis

Raising funds to ensure excellence in the arts and build a vibrant cultural community for everyone.
Our mission statement above says it best - ArtsMemphis is an arts fundraising organization dedicated to supporting and enhancing the region's cultural community. Approximately 95% of funds raised through our Annual Campaign goes directly to the arts community. Founded 45 years ago by a group of Memphians who wanted to ensure that vibrant and diverse local arts offerings would be sustained, ArtsMemphis is now one of the largest United Arts Fund in the entire country.
ArtsMemphis is proud to offer this calendar of events to our community as another way to promote our many cultural assets.
