THRIVE! Uplifting Theatres of Color
Program Status: Not accepting applications at this time
THRIVE! Uplifting Theatres of Color, developed with an Advisory Circle of Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) theatre leaders, provides unrestricted funds for those who have all too often been outside the grantmaking sector’s funding opportunities: Black theatres, Indigenous theatres and Theatres of Color (BITOC). THRIVE! Uplifting Theatres of Color offers 25 RESPOND grants of $10,000 each to address immediate, time-sensitive challenges that prevent ongoing work with their communities; and 20 RECOGNIZE grants of $50,000 each for general operating support of BITOC that demonstrate a deep level of service to their chosen communities, a clear vision guiding their on-going and future work, and the highest potential for the THRIVE! program to positively impact their organization. Each recipient will determine how their funds will be used.
This program is funded by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and the Sheri and Les Biller Family Foundation.
