Young Benefactors (YB) are a group of arts patrons (ages 21-35) who are committed to Americans for the Arts’ mission to advance the arts in America by building broad public support, strong leadership, and increased resources for the arts and arts education.
Young Benefactors provide critical financial support to Americans for the Arts’ many programs, which are focused in the areas of advocacy, research, visibility and professional development.
Our Young Benefactors are personally engaged in the arts across the country through a wide variety of Americans for the Arts’ philanthropic, social, and educational events. In addition, many YBs participate in the National Arts Awards, Americans for the Arts’ annual gala, as members of the Junior Benefit Committee.
To learn more about becoming involved with the Junior Benefit Committee of the National Arts Awards, please contact our Leadership Alliances Coordinator via e-mail or by phone at 202.371.2830.
