Welcome United Arts of Central Florida!

We’d like to welcome our newest Open Arts Network partner organization into the fold — United Arts of Central Florida.

United Arts of Central Florida is a dynamic collaboration of businesses, governments, foundations, arts and culture organizations, school districts, artists, and individuals. This partnership works to enhance the quality and variety of cultural experiences available throughout Lake, Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties of Central Florida. Since its inception in 1989, United Arts has invested over $107 million in local cultural organizations and cultural education. United Arts envisions a diverse, well-attended, fiscally-sound arts and cultural community that serves residents and visitors to the Central Florida region.

United Arts provides funding to nonprofit arts and cultural organizations and individuals through three grant programs each year — one for general operating support, one for project support, and one for professional development support. This year, $2.1 million in grants will be awarded to to 14 major arts and cultural organizations, and $212,000 will be awarded to 35 nonprofit organizations for project grant funding.

United Arts also publishes Orlando Arts Magazine, a bi-monthly periodical produced in partnership with Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau. The magazine covers area arts and culture happenings, history, and includes a cultural calendar.

We’re happy to have United Arts on board!
