As part of our summer office closure, the Help Desk is closed from June 30 - July 11 to give our staff a chance to recharge.

 We’ll respond to your question when we’re back on Monday, July 14. If you are reaching out about a specific grant opportunity, we will get back to you right when we re-open.

By supporting the Alliance, you're supporting the arts as a whole.

For every dollar donated to Arts Alliance over the last four years, we helped create over $280 in funding for the Illinois creative sector.
