The Arts Get Creative

Our Mission Continues.

TN4ARTS acknowledges the newfound volatility in the arts funding landscape. And along with both our current and future members, we’re excited to continue supporting our arts communities every step of the way.

New solutions and increased outreach keep us confident for the future, because we’ve seen the continually evolving and bolstered networks that arise from these moments. On a massive scale, arts groups, philanthropists, and dedicated activists have boosted the national arts sector by $1T annually through diversifying business models and shifting to new revenue streams. Read more about the journey here.

The Result?

A more agile, unified sector that’s not just surviving, but leading previously-untapped economic growth–with studies affirming the arts as a high-return engine for prosperity and well-being. The arts don’t just survive economic flux; they drive recovery and new opportunity. 

Here in Tennessee, we have the unique opportunity to drive this effort decisively; so that’s what we’ll continue to do. We proudly believe in our statewide chorus of unified advocates, because like the very artistic endeavors we support here in Tennessee, you unite and create opportunity for all—making us both a passionate body in the arts ecosystem, and an economic powerhouse. 

Keep Advocating!

While the road ahead may be different from what we had previously envisioned, we’re going to continue relying on Tennesseans’ resilience and ingenuity—for ultimately it is you, our dedicated and active membership base, who drives us forward.
