Abstract
For the past two decades, artist-endowed foundations have been making their presence felt across America. These charitable foundations, endowed by artists, are dramatically changing the arts landscape. Although federal funding for the arts is decreasing, artist-endowed foundations are increasing in number and revenue. These foundations focus on grant-making for artists, arts organizations, museums, artsrelated research, arts education, scholarships, and programs for artists. This thesis examines the affect of federal funding on artists and art organizations. Three distinct artist-endowed foundations are explored, revealing the ripple effect that these foundations are having by developing new models of support for artists and art organizations.
