Fostering Diverse Voices

The creation, development and production of work that reflects voices and experiences of artists from all backgrounds are critical to sustaining art that is rich, vibrant and relevant.

Time Warner helps nurture and support the work of diverse and underrepresented artists in four ways:

bulletSupporting major cultural institutions to showcase the work of diverse talent

bulletFunding the development and cultivation of new works by underrepresented artists in theater and film

bulletNurturing the arts at the community level through support of small and medium size arts organizations

bulletFunding programs that nurture young people interested in careers in the arts

Below is an overview of organizations and programs supported by Time Warner.
