Funding for the Frederick Arts Council comes from diverse sources — one third from generous private foundations such as the Ausherman Family Foundation, the Delaplaine Foundation, and the Nora Roberts Foundation; one third from earned revenue such as ticket sales, concessions, and rentals; and one third from governmental support such as the National Endowment for the Arts, the Maryland State Arts Council, and from the City of Frederick and Frederick County.
We are also generously supported by many local charitable foundations and businesses:
George Shields Foundation • Joseph D. Baker Fund, Inc. • Randall Charitable Trust • William E. Cross Foundation
If you’re interested in opportunities to support the Arts Council, we encourage you to look into individual or business membership, as well as corporate sponsorship of our many events.
