Our Partners
Arts & Culture Partners
Our Arts & Culture partners are a diverse group of local arts organizations representing a variety of artistic disciplines committed to fostering equitable access to arts education in Houston. They, along with Houston ISD, the City of Houston, the local philanthropic community, state and national partners, and community members form the Arts Connect Houston collective.
Arts Connect Houston welcomes new Arts & Culture Partners once a year. Partner benefits include connecting with schools, educators, and arts leaders to learn from one another and align efforts; joining working groups and key conversations to help shape Houston's arts education path; and having access to the Arts Action Fund to support programs within Houston ISD. To be notified when the next application window opens, please subscribe to our newsletter.
