Our Arts and Culture Program

Bank of America's investment in the arts sets opportunity in motion in a climate that fosters innovation, respect and tolerance for an increasingly integrated world.

As a company serving clients in more than 150 countries and with almost 300,000 employees, Bank of America (doing business as Bank of America Merrill Lynch outside the United States) is committed to a diverse program of cultural support that engages individuals, organizations, communities and cultures in building mutual respect and understanding and which strengthens institutions that contribute to the vitality of local economies.


Program Components

The Arts and Culture Program is multi-layered, providing support through grants, sponsorships and our own signature programs: Art in our Communities®, the Art Conservation Project and Museums on Us®. Our support extends across all art forms with an emphasis on programs that create greater cultural understanding, shared cultural experiences and benefits for our communities.
