Chairmen’s Fund

Members of the Chairmen's Fund are current and former chairs and other leaders on the boards of Chicago's cultural, educational, and civic institutions. They generously commit $100,000 or more in support of ChiArts. Many of these gifts are pledged over five or fewer years, providing dependable funds for times ahead during these critical startup years.

Support from Chairmen's Fund members makes a powerful statement about the great importance of ChiArts to the public high school students of Chicago, the development of new Chicago artists, and the future of the arts and arts institutions here.

We are most grateful for the support of the following current members of the ChiArts Chairmen's Fund:
