Our Impact
Fueling a Vibrant Arts Community for Dallas
For over 50 years, TACA has been dedicated to making the Dallas arts community one of the strongest in the nation. We invest in over 60 arts organizations of all shapes and sizes to support a vibrant arts community rich in cultures and stories—one that values the health and well-being of its citizens and is committed to building a sustainable future for our creative sector. We empower local arts organizations to thrive through flexible funding programs, arts-specific professional development that fosters organizational growth and evolution, and engaging, art-centered experiences that connect artists with audiences.
TACA’s mission is to invest in the vibrancy and resilience of a diverse Dallas arts community. We envision a thriving arts landscape that is celebrated and accessible to everyone.

Basically Beethoven
"With TACA's reputation and name recognition, being a TACA-funded organization is like a seal of approval: an arts patron can see the affiliation and will know we have been vetted and they can trust a TACA-funded organization will provide quality performances or experiences."
Greater Dallas Youth Orchestra
"The biggest impact TACA's grants have on the Greater Dallas Youth Orchestra is getting to help children from a variety of backgrounds learn to work together to rehearse and perform music that is interesting, beautiful, and challenging for them. Allowing them to see "what could be" and guiding them to achieve goals that they did not think were possible."
Pegasus Contemporary Ballet
“The Arts Accelerator did not just teach us what to think, it taught us how to think. We received a wealth of information on how to approach managing our organization and our future that could be applied to our unique goals and artistic endeavors. The Accelerator also created a fantastic and invaluable community of emerging arts leaders with shared experience and values. This creation of community has fostered lasting relationships, unity, and collaboration in the Dallas Arts ecosystem.”
Soul Rep Theatre Company
"Soul Rep Theatre Company is privileged to be among the dozens of dynamic arts organizations supported by TACA. For the last three years, we have benefitted not only from monetary support from TACA, but insightful workshops and presentations to enrich the artistic and operational growth of our company."
Nasher Sculpture Center
“The Nasher Sculpture Center is deeply grateful to TACA for their consistent dedication shown to this organization, their commitment to the arts, as well as their extreme generosity shown towards the Dallas arts community. Their support of the Nasher and other arts organizations is a profound investment in not only the enrichment of this city and region, but in the power of the arts as a whole."
