Local Performing Arts Fund
The McIntyre Hall Local Performing Arts grant opportunity has grown tenfold since its founding in 2022, an incredible gift to our community. The Skagit Community Foundation is a bridge between local donors' vision and the impact of their generosity.
In total, this opportunity has provided $531,488 to local not-for-profit performing arts groups since its inception. The Skagit Community Foundation is honored to support the McIntyre Hall Local Performing Arts Grants, helping musicians and performers of all ages remind us how deeply the arts connect us as a community.
Thank you so much to founding donor Jacqueline Stegner for enriching and empowering the arts in our Skagit community, and for all donors who have contributed to this important opportunity as well as the dedicated volunteer grantmaking review committees.
