Arts & Culture Fund

Music boosts our daughter's confidence to practice a new skill that she loves. Without the Spark Creativity scholarship program, we would never have been able to get her started.

Arts and culture enrich communities by fostering communication, empathy, and connection. Kirkland Community Foundation supports creative expression in Kirkland, where a vibrant nonprofit arts scene enhances our quality of life every day. Artistic engagement bridges divides, preserves identity, and promotes inclusivity. By valuing the arts we strengthen community resilience and affirm how the arts play an essential role in our collective well-being.
