Strengthening artists and arts and culture organizations to increase their impact in our region. CultureWorks values diversity and inclusivity and believes everyone in our community should have access to arts and culture, as well as the opportunity to express their culture through the arts. Our vision is a vibrant region through empowered artists and arts and culture organizations. We will accomplish this through providing grant opportunities, deepening access to communities with barriers, increasing the capacity of small and medium-sized organizations and individual artists, and the promotion of events to the public. CultureWorks serves the Richmond and Tri-Cities region (Cities of Richmond, Colonial Heights, Hopewell and Petersburg, along with the counties of Charles City, Chesterfield, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico, New Kent and Powhatan, and the town of Ashland) which includes an array of constituents from individual practicing artists, and grassroots arts organizations, to large well-established cultural nonprofits.
