Mid America Arts Alliance

We are a nonprofit, regional arts organization—representing Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas—that focuses on strengthening communities and improving lives through extraordinary cultural experiences.

We are artists, administrators, historians, preservationists, preparators. We are writers, painters, photographers, activists.

M-AAA’s programs are provided through three main focus areas: Arts and Humanities Programming, Arts and Humanities Grantmaking, and Professional Development. Nationally, M-AAA provides more than 450 performances, exhibitions, and professional development activities, and some 1,000 related educational programs.

We believe that the arts are a source of lifelong learning and renewal, and that access to extraordinary cultural experiences should not be limited by geography or economics. Our core purpose is to create more art for more people.
