Let's Make Music Together

A symphony takes more than one person playing to make it work. It’s the same when it comes to supporting the arts. When you give to UPAF, you’re part of a community of people committed to keeping the arts alive in Southeastern Wisconsin. And, you’re adding your gift to thousands of others, which makes even a small donation a powerful contribution.

One Gift, Many Benefits

Just one donation to UPAF supports many performing arts. It’s the same kind of ripple effect that the performing arts have on our community at large.

Since 1967, UPAF has helped greater Milwaukee’s performing arts scene thrive thanks to contributions from people like you. We believe the arts lift us and make our community a better place to live.

Your gift supports 32 performing arts groups that enrich the lives of area residents young and old. With funding from UPAF, dozens of these groups are able to offer free or “pay-what-you-can” nights so nobody has to miss out on a fantastic performance. Woven into the mission of many local groups are unique educational opportunities that truly offer something for everyone. They can’t do it without UPAF, and we can’t do it without you.
