Our Mission

The Tresp Family Arts Foundation is dedicated to advancing the vibrant world of performing arts by actively supporting the presentation, perpetuation, and propagation of artistic events.

  • Art encourages empathy and understanding by offering diverse perspectives and narratives. It invites viewers to step into the shoes of the artist, to see the world through their eyes, and to appreciate the beauty and complexity of different cultures and ideas. Moreover, art provides a platform for dialogue and collaboration. It brings people together, encouraging them to exchange ideas, challenge assumptions, and explore new possibilities. Artistic endeavors often involve teamwork and collective creativity, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose. In addition, art can serve as a catalyst for social change. It has the power to address important issues, raise awareness, and inspire action. Through art, individuals can express their thoughts and emotions about societal challenges, sparking conversations and mobilizing communities towards positive transformation.

  • Broadening horizons to the arts is an enriching and transformative experience that opens doors to new perspectives, creativity, and cultural understanding. By engaging with various art forms such as visual arts, music, dance, theater, and literature, individuals can explore different expressions of human experiences and emotions. The arts provide a platform for self-expression, fostering personal growth and self-discovery. Whether as a participant or an observer, embracing the arts broadens horizons, stimulates imagination, and nurtures a deeper connection to the world around us

  • Bringing awareness to performing arts is crucial as it celebrates the richness and diversity of human expression. The performing arts encompass various disciplines such as theater, dance, music, and more. These art forms have the power to captivate, inspire, and provoke thought. By promoting awareness of performing arts, we can highlight the immense talent and creativity of artists, both established and emerging.
