The Shubert Foundation is the nation’s largest funder dedicated to unrestricted funding of not-for-profit theatres and dance companies.

Approximately 74% of Shubert funding is directed to not-for-profit, professional theatres—and 16% to dance companies—in the US, with an emphasis on producing, rather than presenting, organizations.

We seek to be clear about our priorities and provide reasonable guidance to those who are considering investing time and resources in preparing applications. If questions remain after reading the information on this Website, please call The Shubert Foundation at (212) 944-3777.

Grants start at $15,000. Larger grants are generally awarded to organizations that have been on The Foundation roster for several years.
