Investing in
the Future

While maintaining the current $24 million corpus, earnings from these private and public investments support statewide arts & humanities projects and programs.

Of the $24 million, $12 million is held by the State of Nebraska in the Cultural Preservation Endowment Fund and $12 million is managed privately by the Nebraska Cultural Endowment. These funds generate over $1 million annually in support of the Nebraska Arts Council and Humanities Nebraska.

Only through your support, can we access this one-of-a-kind match with the State of Nebraska.

Since inception, the Nebraska Cultural Endowment has distributed over $15 million to fund arts & humanities programs in our state.
