The Arizona ArtShare Endowment

The Arizona ArtShare Endowment is a fund of the Arizona Community Foundation established to stabilize Arizona arts institutions and support arts education programs. Funds contributed to the Arizona ArtShare Endowment have been held by the Arizona Community Foundation since the private endowment’s inception in 1996. Endowment interest is distributed annually through the grantmaking activities of the Arizona Commission on the Arts, Arizona’s state arts agency. Grants are delivered to statewide arts organizations and nonprofit community institutions which provide arts-based programs and services.

All donations to the Arizona ArtShare Endowment are tax-deductible.

The Arizona Community Foundation is currently offering a $50,000 challenge grant to match donations to the Arizona ArtShare Endowment, dollar for dollar, up to a limit of $50,000. Double your contribution by acting now and taking advantage of this limited match offer!
