Welcome to Mid-America Arts Alliance

Mid-America Arts Alliance is a nonprofit, Regional Arts Organization that serves Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas. We focus on strengthening communities and improving lives through extraordinary cultural experiences.

M-AAA exists to activate, empower, and amplify community through the arts. To do this, we make grants, provide career development, and support arts organizations and artists of all disciplines.

We believe in more art for more people.

Art has the unique ability to connect, inspire, and elevate those who experience it. Indeed, the act of making and experiencing art is when we are at our most human.

• When the arts ACTIVATE, they spark, create, generate change.
• When the arts EMPOWER, they add life, force, momentum.
• When the arts AMPLIFY, they accentuate and enhance what is there.

M-AAA brings together diverse resources, people, and initiatives to build, influence, and transform communities in our six states and beyond.
