Creating the conditions for artists to thrive
A vibrant performing arts sector sparks the public imagination and enhances our collective quality of life. In her lifetime, Doris Duke tirelessly supported performing artists, especially those in the worlds of contemporary dance, jazz and theater.
Today, the Doris Duke Foundation continues that legacy by advancing the careers of performing artists and supporting them to pursue new ways of conceiving, producing and sharing their work.
