On May 10, FAB members, supporters, and friends gathered at The Main on Las Olas to honor 27 arts organizations in Broward. The organizations received a total of $282,000 in grants for innovative programming and education initiatives in 2023. FAB has donated $4.2 million + to the arts sector since its inception in 2003.
The Grant Awards Ceremony gave members and grantees an opportunity to connect, learn about each arts organizations mission and celebrate in a stunning location. For those who were not able to attend we have added a link to watch the Awards Ceremony Here.

Vampire attacks, werewolf sightings, and the resurrection of an Eqyptian Princess all make an appearance in this hilarious send-up of gothic romance and horror films in which two actors and lightning, fast costume changes are the stars of the show. Charles Ludlam and The Ridiculous Theatrical Company were pioneers, now legends in LGBT+ theater, elevating camp to an art form and paving the way for companies like Island City Stage.

Approximate Run time TBA
Tickets $35

Through the generosity of our corporate partners, FAB can continue to contribute to a diverse and innovative arts landscape.

There is no better time than now to come together as members of FAB to increase the annual grant pool. FAB is reaching a tremendous milestone, 20 years of grant making in Broward. As we look forward to the next year of progress we ask that you as members help us in connecting with companies and organizations that align with FAB's mission to support the arts.
