BRIDGE Announces Support from the The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts

BRIDGE is excited to announce that we have recently received a grant from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. This generous grant will help support this year’s Festival of Holes and the launch of Artists United.

Following Andy Warhol’s will, the mission of The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts is the advancement of the visual arts. The foundation manages an innovative and dynamic grants program while also preserving Warhol’s legacy through creative and responsible licensing policies and extensive scholarly research for ongoing catalogue raisonné projects. To date, the foundation has given $350 million in cash grants to over 1,000 arts organizations around the country and abroad and has donated 52,786 works of art to 322 institutions worldwide.

BRIDGE is honored and humbled to be included among such esteemed recipients, and we’re incredibly grateful for the foundation’s support.
