Tri-M Foundation Announces Recipients of the Performing Arts Grant Program

The foundation awards $39,300 to arts organizations across the U.S. for theatre and dance.

Tri-M Foundation is pleased to announce the recipients of the sixth cycle of its Performing Arts Grant program. Launched in 2020, the Performing Arts Grant program supports the development and presentation of innovative arts projects, events, and festivals by regional non-profit arts organizations. Grantees will each receive between $9,000 and $10,000 to support the realization of their vision.

“The grant projects this year celebrate and puzzle over ambiguities — between memory and reality, life and death, beholder and beheld, big and small, material and spirit, relentless time and instantaneity,” said Zachary Christman, president of the Tri-M Foundation board of directors. “Within their chosen mediums, each organization investigates the little dash between ‘yes’, ‘yes’ again, and ‘no’, and we’re excited to see what they find.”

To learn more about the Performing Arts Grant program, performing arts organizations with an active 501(c)(3) are encouraged to visit the website (https://tri-m.foundation/grantprogram). The application deadline for the next round of funding is February 15, 2026.
