Your gift helps creativity thrive here.
A young musician learning to play with an orchestra. Neighbors gathering for a free concert. An artist sharing work with a new audience. A community bringing its downtown to life.
Your support helps make these experiences possible.
At Catamount Arts, we believe rural communities deserve exceptional artistic experiences and opportunities to create. Since 1975, we have brought people together through music, film, visual art, and arts education. Along the way, we have built resources that help artists, arts organizations, and communities sustain creative work of their own.
What your generosity supports
Your gift helps sustain:
- Exceptional artistic experiences: Acclaimed performers, independent films, exhibitions, and opportunities to encounter new perspectives.
- Young people’s creativity: Programs including EPIC Music, where intensive string instruction and ensemble performance develop musical skills, confidence, and connection.
- Access and belonging: Free concerts, subsidized educational opportunities, and welcoming places to participate.
- Resources communities can share: Professional production crews, mobile stages, ticketing services, and practical learning opportunities for college interns.
Local support reaches an entire region.
During summer 2026, Catamount and its community partners helped deliver more than 80 free concerts, with combined attendance exceeding 120,000. Three mobile stages, supported by professional staff and interns, serve communities within a 50-mile radius of St. Johnsbury.
Behind each gathering are people working together: artists, volunteers, local businesses, community leaders, and supporters like you.
Your generosity helps sustain those relationships and the everyday work that turns creative ideas into shared experiences. It helps communities build the skills and resources to keep creating, gathering, and celebrating for years to come.
Make a gift today. Help keep exceptional arts experiences and creative opportunities within reach.
Help build the next chapter: the Creative Campus
Our 50th Anniversary Capital Campaign invests in the places that support this work.
The Creative Campus brings together our Eastern Avenue Arts Center and three neighboring buildings, combining space for Catamount’s programming with rental facilities for creative organizations and businesses.
Campaign gifts support rehabilitation, energy upgrades, and building improvements that preserve these community assets and strengthen their long-term use.
Support the Creative Campus and help give creativity a lasting home.
