ARTSmemphis is the primary arts funder in the Mid-South and exists to strengthen our community by supporting Memphis artists and arts organizations. The arts are essential in driving our economy, enhancing quality of life, improving youth development, providing healing and connection, bridging differences, and sparking innovation. ARTSmemphis grants over $3M to 65+ organizations and hundreds of artists annually. ARTSmemphis has invested over $90 million since its inception in 1963, expanding the foundation of art for our city.

ARTSmemphis generates arts support and invests in artists and organizations. Over the last several years, ARTSmemphis began funding individual artists and implemented a more equitable grant-making structure that supports more organizations, enabling more arts experiences for Memphians. ARTSmemphis elevated its role as convener and connector during the pandemic, helping the sector navigate impacts and plan for a forever-changed future.

ARTSmemphis envisions a Memphis in which every individual feels pride in our city’s authentic cultural assets and experiences the impact of the arts in their lives. In pursuit of that vision, we are guided by a commitment to access, equity and inclusion, creativity and innovation, and transparency.
