Thank you to all who were a hero for the arts during the 2024 Campaign!
Southeastern Wisconsin’s performing arts sector is vibrant and diverse because it is home to a broad range of organizations of all sizes and focuses. A strong arts community starts with strong arts groups, and our community embraces and celebrates collaboration amongst those organizations.
UPAF funding is truly the backbone of the operations of each Member organization, filling a gap that ticket sales alone cannot cover. And because Wisconsin ranks 50th out of all 50 states for government support of the arts while groups are continuing to recover from forced closures and rising costs, UPAF funding is critical to the work that all Members do.
Even though our 2024 Campaign ended on Aug. 31, we’re already getting a head start on 2025! Lock in your support today and help us set the pace for next year. Your gift is more than a donation, it’s an investment in your home, your neighborhood, your business and your future.
