RAISE THE CURTAIN FOR THE ARTS POWER HOUR

Wednesday, May 1 from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM


The arts sustain us. The arts connect us. The arts bring us joy, make us think and let us escape! During the isolation of the pandemic, the arts got us through! Now it's time for us to say thank you to the artists and arts organizations that still have smaller audiences and gatherings.

The Bank of America is providing a matching pool of $10,000 to inspire giving to visual and performing arts organizations. All donations made to eligible organizations via The Great Give 2024 during the 8:00-9:00 p.m. ET hour on May 1 will receive prorated portion of the match pool based on the number of unique donors, in addition to the prorated share of the Community Foundations' matching pools.
