Bringing Beauty and Talent to Life
Life is made richer through the arts, culture, and humanities. Our programs support efforts to bring the arts out into the community in a variety of ways.
- Goal: Art in the Street
From murals to musical performances, to school assemblies to pop-up poetry, our grants support programs that surprise and delight members of our community. - Goal: Rewarding Excellence
Our scholarship programs for students help reduce the barriers to continuing education for talented young people in our community. - Goal: Getting the Word Out
Through support for local media, we ensure our community members have the information they need to live their best lives in Berks County.
What’s New in Arts, Culture, and Humanities
We turn initiatives into action.
With the help of community partners and committed volunteers, we take what we learn and put it to work through specific programs.
