Join the Foundation. Build the Legacy.

True cultural movements require architectural foundations. If you believe that art and creative ecosystems are not luxuries but are essential to the human spirit and the cultivation of an intentional society, we invite you to merge your equity with ours.

Between 2015 and 2020, we proved the power of this communal model. International artists came to the EC and left richer, more grounded, and deeply woven into Lexington’s unique creative pulse. Now, at this rebirthing of the program, your contribution directly builds the operational runway to bring this fully funded experience back to life, for life. It is in integral to establishing a counter-weight of beauty and depth in the world today.

Because of our newly minted non-profit status, 100% of your financial investment is tax-deductible. There are two distinct ways to champion this vision today-

5×5 Foundation Circle & Studio Sponsorships

We are seeking foundational partners—cultural advocates, business leaders, and philanthropic visionaries—to provide the critical stability required to scale our infrastructure, maintain our historic facilities, and anchor this creative oasis for the long haul.

To deeply root this foundation, your investment directly funds either a dedicated, year-long creative studio space for a talented local Lexington artist, or our Artist-in-Residence program. Your support goes the extra mile to either ensure Lexington can welcome a global community of rotating residents, or grow more deeply, our own homegrown creative voices through having a permanent, fully funded sanctuary to layer, build, and sustain their practices where otherwise they may be unable.

• The 5×5 Foundation Circle ($5,000/year for 5 years): For visionaries looking to secure the long-term legacy. This multi-year commitment provides the sustainable operational runway needed to anchor our community oasis for generations.

• The Annual Studio Sponsorship ($5,000 for 1 year): For champions who want to make an immediate, tangible impact. This single-year gift fully funds and sponsors a dedicated studio space for a local working artist for one entire calendar year.
