Sponsor A H.E.A.R.T. Grant Emerging Artist Member for FALL 2025 Fair

We are excited to invite you to make a lasting impact on the vibrant arts scene in Fountain Hills by sponsoring one of our emerging artists through the H.E.A.R.T. (Helping Emerging Artists and Rising Talent) grant program. This initiative, powered by the Fountain Hills Chamber Foundation, connects artists with the financial support needed to showcase their talent at the Fountain Festival of Fine Arts & Crafts, one of the most celebrated art festivals in the region.

Why Sponsor an Artist?

By sponsoring an emerging artist with a $1,000 grant, you’ll be directly contributing to their growth and success while enhancing the creative fabric of our festivals. These funds cover critical costs such as booth fees, membership in the Chamber, and incidentals, enabling talented artists to share their work at the festival without financial barriers. Your support will help transform the dream of participating in this prestigious event into a reality for an up-and-coming artist.

Sponsor Recognition

In recognition of your sponsorship, you will:

Gain Visibility: Your sponsorship will be highlighted at the artist’s booth with a custom banner, allowing festival-goers to see your commitment to supporting the arts.

Strengthen Community Ties: You will receive an invitation to the Festival Artist Party and will have the opportunity to meet your sponsored artist in person, creating a personal connection that reflects your support for the arts and our local community.

Build Your Brand: By aligning yourself with the arts, your business will be seen as a champion of culture and creativity, which fosters goodwill among community members and art enthusiasts.

Receive Public Acknowledgment: Your generosity will be recognized in event materials, Chamber communications, and during the festival, showcasing your contribution to the broader audience.
Exclusive Invite: You will be invited to attend the exclusive Artist Only Party on Saturday evening following the closure of the Arts Festival for the Day.
