Thank you Junior League of Madison!

MYArts is sending a very special thank you to the Junior League of Madison (JLM) for a generous gift that supports MYArts’ work as a community resource.

JLM awarded MYArts a total of $75,000! This gift will enable the creation of  a new, community-involved indoor mural project, as well as $50,000 for our Access Fund, which supports every single youth arts program that uses our facility. We couldn’t be more thrilled to receive this gift, and applaud JLM for supporting youth arts experiences throughout the greater Madison area.

We’re also delighted to be in the good company of the Madison Reading Project, who will be using a gift from JLM to fund their new Big Red Reading Bus, which will bring the joys of reading to thousands of kids.

The League has also established a $150,000 grant-making program, bringing the League’s current financial commitment to the community to nearly half a million dollars. “We invite women in the community to join our organization and realize the personal leadership skills they can develop and the positive community impact they can make. In its 35th year, the League is proud and honored to partner with Madison Reading Project (MRP) and MYArts, two growth-oriented nonprofit organizations,” said Barnes. “The Junior League is pleased to celebrate what they have done and what they will continue to do in the years ahead.” 

MYArts is proud to have worked with over 60 youth arts programs in our first two years of operation. Community support is what allows us to do this work! Thank you Junior League of Madison!
