Thank You for Supporting the ChiArts Foundation
For 17 years, generous donors provided tuition-free, pre-professional arts training to more than 1,800 Chicago scholar-artists. Every gift strengthened opportunities for students to learn, create, perform, and discover their potential at the city’s only public high school dedicated to the arts.
