We’re on a mission to elevate artists & communities.
Creativity is our foundation. Elevate Arts supports artists across disciplines — visual, literary, performing, and curatorial — by providing resources, services, and platforms that foster collaboration and bring arts to the heart of community life.
Welcome to Elevate Arts, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting creativity and cultural connection.
Our mission is to strengthen the arts ecosystem by uplifting individual artists, collectives, and arts-centered initiatives. We do this by providing affordable arts administration services, access to space, professional development programs, and opportunities for artists to share their work with the public.
With deep roots in New York’s artist-run community, Elevate Arts is committed to building an inclusive, sustainable future for the arts. We believe artists are essential to cultural dialogue and community resilience, and we are dedicated to expanding access to meaningful creative experiences for all.
We work across disciplines — supporting artists, arts organizations, and communities.
From emerging visual artists to collaborative performance projects and interdisciplinary initiatives, Elevate Arts provides the tools and support to help creativity thrive. Our programs and services are designed to meet artists where they are and help them grow, connect, and share their work.
