The Allied Arts annual campaign is a community-wide drive to raise vital funds to ensure quality cultural programming; arts education in classrooms, after school sites, and neighborhood centers; outreach into underserved communities; and healing arts initiatives for the sick and disabled. Allied Arts member agencies use allocated funds to not only meet administrative line items but also to underwrite performances and exhibits, keep admission prices affordable, provide free arts events and programming, and bring arts experiences to school children statewide.
