Happy fall from CultureSource!

Today, we’re announcing our fall funding programs, totaling over $200,000 across four programs to support the work of CultureSource member organizations, arts organizers and curators, artists and collectives, and more.

We’re thrilled to launch these programs with the support of our amazing partners, including those in our regional arts and cultural community who aided in program design, and our philanthropic partners locally, statewide, and nationally who work with us to support the artistic and cultural vibrancy of Southeast Michigan.
