We support, inform, and celebrate creative organizations and communities across the Midwest and the nation. Using the power of Midwestern creativity, we build thriving, entrepreneurial, and welcoming communities. As a Midwestern organization, we specifically focus on our region of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, Wisconsin, and the Native Nations that share this geography. Each fiscal year, we award grants to hundreds of organizations, tour artists across the Midwest, and share stories that celebrate Midwestern creativity.
One of six nonprofit United States Regional Arts Organizations, Arts Midwest’s history spans more than 35 years. Since our founding, we have awarded more than 6,000 grants totaling nearly $60 million. Each year, we serve more than 700,000 individuals across more than 300 communities in the Midwest and beyond.
