FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) - Arts United announced Friday morning that the Unity Performing Arts Foundation (UPAF) and the Foundation for Art and Music Education (FAME) will join the ten existing Arts United groups.

The ten other groups in the Arts United program include: ARCH, Artlink, Fort Wayne Ballet, Fort Wayne Cinema Center, Fort Wayne Civic Theatre, Fort Wayne Dance Collective, the History Center, Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Fort Wayne Philharmonic, and Fort Wayne Youtheatre.

“The addition of FAME and UPAF to our group of principal partners strengthens our support for arts education and diversity of cultural experiences in our community,” Jim Sparrow, executive director of Arts United, said.

Arts United was started in 1955 and it has been 15 years since the core group of 10 partners has been expanded.

It is the third oldest non-profit united arts fund in the United States.
