Performing Arts Fund
The Performing Arts Fund supports the inter-state touring of professional performing artists specializing in the fine arts of dance, theater, music, youth and family entertainment, and other meaningful performing arts forms appropriate for communities throughout Arts Midwest’s nine-state region. These engagements include public performances and in-depth educational activities reaching audiences that lack access to the performing arts. Performing Arts Fund grants are applied for by and made directly to presenting organizations in our nine-state region of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

About the Performing Arts Fund
The Performing Arts Fund is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, which believes a great nation deserves great art, with additional contributions from Arts Midwest’s member state arts agencies, General Mills Foundation, and Land O’Lakes Foundation.
