Arts Alliance Illinois fights for arts resources and policies that benefit our members and all Illinois residents. As the only statewide, multidisciplinary organization concentrated on the strength of arts and culture, the Alliance takes on challenges that no single organization or artist can face alone.
Arts Alliance Illinois envisions a world where the arts are central and indispensable to Illinois, where people acknowledge that the arts enhance their quality of life, fuel creativity and innovation, sharpen the state’s competitive edge, attract and retain talent, promote cross-cultural understanding, aid in solving civic and social issues, and keep Illinois nationally and globally connected.
Our focus areas include:
• Statewide civic engagement, through which we position arts and culture as a source of creative solutions to a broad range of challenges.
• Arts education, through which we promote arts-centered learning and the development of a creative and adaptive workforce.
• Cultural equity, through which we foster equitable access to and participation in arts and culture, and advance historically neglected or marginalized forms of expression.

Cultural Hub is a Ukraine-born international cultural nonprofit institution and independent think tank for those who “dare to know” and dare to own their Genius.
We work in the formats of generative dialogue, Bohm dialogue, moderated dialogue, public debate, podcasts, literary translations, illustrated essays and wartime flash essays, big data analytics, public thematic lexicons, and compendiums of complex questions in time.
We’re a warm community of writers, philosophers, humanities and social scientists, researchers, editors, translators, artists, project curators, and international cultural managers from the global cultural and creative industries who explore the Present to think the Future.
In 2022-27, we’re creating Ukrainian cultural diplomacy projects within the framework of the Uniting Cultural Diplomacy Initiative.
