Leadership. Innovative Problem Solving. Creating Community.

These are attributes that best describe the coalition of founding performing arts leaders who collectively came together to create this new organization. We hope you will consider becoming a sponsor and facilitate arts programming that will enrich thousands of communities in rural, suburban and urban Mid-America.

We have curated a robust selection of XPO sponsorship opportunities to highlight your business and help support this wonderful gathering.
