GRANT OPPORTUNITIES

ArtsFirst

Art lifts our spirits and expands our horizons. First Horizon Foundation, a longtime supporter of our local arts community, partners with ARTSmemphis each year to grant funds to local arts organizations toward sponsorships, programs, and/or general operations that promote artistic excellence and enrichment.

The ArtsFirst grant panel is composed of First Horizon Foundation representatives, who make all funding decisions.

The First Horizon Foundation focuses contributions to strengthen these vital signs of a strong community:

  • Arts & Culture: Promoting excellence and enrichment in the arts

  • Education & Leadership: Educating, developing the next generation of leaders

  • Environment: A more sustainable future

  • Financial Literacy: Investing in the financial future

  • Health & Human Services: Improving the well-being of our communities

The FY25 ArtsFirst grant opens November 4; see timeline below for more details.

Deadline: January 15, 2025
