With Halloween coming up, it’s easy to be inspired by all the fun costumes, eye-catching decorations, and entertaining movies — plus related traditions like the Haitian Fèt Gede, Irish Samhain, Mexican Día de los Muertos and Filipino Undas. It’s just as easy to take for granted the time, training, resources, skills and knowledge required to create much of the art we enjoy every day. We are surrounded by creative potential that is nurtured, developed and amplified by arts and culture nonprofits.

The Annual Giving Drive is a great way to support these organizations spanning the many creative disciplines and cultures that enrich our communities. 

Here are a few EGP nonprofits that work in these areas – to see the full list and discover more search online or review the 2025 Giving Guide of nonprofits by service category.
