foundation support
The service mission of Ars Viva is made possible by philanthropic partners who share our vision of classical music that is accessible and inclusive.
Ars Viva requires operating support to sustain its mission of service while maintaining superlative artistic quality. Unrestricted grants from foundations help us advance our goals for audience development and professional management. Concert sponsorship grants support artistic costs, the largest category in the Ars Viva budget.
We currently are seeking project support to maintain and expand Music for Life, our innovative program that invites families with young children to experience classical music as listeners and learners, and other outreach programs.
Ars Viva gratefully acknowledges the generous support of the following foundations and organizations:
- Paul M. Angell Family Foundation
- The Buchanan Family Foundation
- Elizabeth F. Cheney Foundation
- Gaylord & Dorothy Donnelley Foundation
- Ann and Howard Gottlieb Foundation
- John R. Halligan Charitable Fund
