SUPPORT FRESH ARTS COALITION

Fresh Arts Coalition is a consortium of small and mid-sized Houston arts organizations that raises the visibility, provides advocacy support, and helps develop audiences for its members. Fresh Arts raises the visibility of its constituent organizations through extensive advertising and strategic marketing efforts that organizations could not afford on their own. Fresh Arts’ advocacy efforts on behalf of the arts are targeted at appropriate government groups, foundations, corporations and individuals in the Houston region. FAC also generates collaborative programs and initiatives among its members by creating a forum for the exchange of programmatic ideas.  Collaborative visibility efforts are bolstered by special events organized by Fresh Arts to facilitate networking among artists, organizations, patrons, supporters and the community.

Fresh Arts was founded in a post-9/11 climate when many arts organizations found it difficult to thrive.  This environment, along with the uncertainty and small budgets of emerging arts non-profits in general, created the need to band together to share costs and knowledge, thereby making each individual organization stronger because of the group.  The need is just as critical today.  In its seven years of operation, Fresh Arts has tripled its operating budget, expanded its programming and can now support 25 emergent arts organizations.  As every business, for-profit or non-profit, faces an uncertain future in the shaky economic climate, an organization such as Fresh Arts, which employs economies of scale to promote its members, is more essential that ever. Our local arts organizations are in dire need of collaborative efforts to ensure not only the continued focus on expanding their audiences, but also to ensure their continued sustainability in our community.

Your donation will allow us to maintain a structure of advocacy and awareness of our members that they cannot afford or maintain easily on their own.
