Seattle Symphony Community Stages Fund
- Deadline:
- Budget: Ranges
The Community Stages Fund (CSF) is an initiative focused on serving organizations, groups and artists within our region that do not have access to spaces to produce and present their art and connect with their community. This fund is part of the Seattle Symphony’s investment in greater prominence for ALAANA (African, Latinx, Asian, Arab or Native American), LGBTQ+ and female artists and their works on the Benaroya Hall stages and the Seattle Symphony+ digital platform, as it aligns with the Symphony's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging work. The CSF welcomes nonprofit organizations, groups and artists to the Benaroya Hall stages for fully sponsored or highly subsidized use of the Illsley Ball Nordstrom Recital Hall, Samuel & Althea Stroum Grand Lobby and Octave 9: Raisbeck Music Center along with in-house digital streaming equipment and production crew. This program aims to amplify the voices of the Puget Sound area and give back to the community members who have helped shape and grow our region’s unique musical and cultural landscape.
The selection criteria include:
Emerging arts performance organizations, groups or artists working in music, dance, film, theater, spoken words, literary arts or visual arts who can demonstrate a financial need for support.
In order to reflect the Seattle Symphony’s commitment to investing in greater on-stage prominence for ALAANA (African, Latinx, Asian, Arab or Native American), LGBTQ+ and female artists, organizations, groups or artists from these communities will be prioritized.
