Vibrant Culture
The Kempner Fund has long recognized the transformative power of arts, humanities, historic preservation, and cultural heritage to Galveston's sense of place. A vibrant community enriches lives, fosters creativity, and promotes social inclusion by providing opportunities for individuals and the greater community to engage with diverse perspectives, experiences, cultural expressions, and traditions.
Through our funding priorities, the Kempner Fund can help support the authenticity and resilience of Galveston's communities, stimulate economic growth through tourism and creative industries, promote understanding and dialogue, and continue to help preserve and celebrate the city's unique heritage and identity.
