BCAA acts as a catalyst to incubate, stimulate and sustain a thriving arts community in Boulder County. BCAA commits to championing policies and practices of cultural equity that empower a just, inclusive and equitable Boulder County for all.

To achieve this mission, BCAA:

  • Ignites interest in the arts by promoting diverse art opportunities and supporting all performing, visual and emerging arts disciplines
  • Nurtures the arts by coordinating collaboration among and between the art disciplines and offering continuing professional development to improve business competencies
  • Fosters a culture of experimentation and innovation in all art forms.
  • Grows the financial capacities of our organizations and expands their financial connections and opportunities for earned income
  • Develops BCAA's capacities and strategies to respond to tomorrow's challenges

Over the years, we have expanded our programs and services and grant programs to include:

  • Business of Art Workshops
  • Fiscal Sponsorship
  • $1,000 - $5000 grants for individual and organization projects, and organization operating or equipment expenses
  • Donor advised grant programs that support unforeseen hardship, recording Jazz CD's, instruments, music and dance lessons for children
  • $1,000 fellowships awarded each year in different disciplines
  • And more!
