Foundation & Grants

Local and national foundations contribute valuable resources that enable WBTT to operate as a professional arts organization as well as supporting capital projects and new program development. These grants help ensure that WBTT’s mission to promote and celebrate the African-American experience, attract diverse audiences, support and develop African-American artists, and build the self-esteem of African-American youth is carried out for years to come.
