Foster Your Arts

Up Your Arts is a non-profit organization founded in 2017 to support and enhance the creative and performing arts throughout the greater Southport area.

Our board of directors is united in this vision for our community. Read about our early beginnings and the unique experience each director contributes to the whole. We know individually how important it was to be supported along the way of our own personal journeys and how critical to our well-being it was to foster others when called upon. This love we all need from time to time is reciprocal. Up Your Arts seeks to weave a safety net of assistance and accessibility for artists and audiences, alike, to flourish.
