Support the Masterwork Foundation
Be that someone. Help artists develop their work, bring people together and make room for what comes next.
Find your way to giveGenerosity becomes opportunity
Creative work needs people willing to stand behind it. A playwright needs a chance to hear a script come alive. A community needs opportunities to encounter art. An emerging artist needs encouragement to keep developing a voice.
Masterwork connects that belief to action through awards, community arts programs and recognition of creative achievement. Your support helps sustain the Foundation and the work it makes possible.
The commitment in practice
These recent examples show the kind of work Masterwork supports. They are existing awards and programs, not promises that a particular gift will buy a particular outcome.
