SILKROAD SEEDS
2020 PROJECTS

Silkroad Seeds fuels creativity and artistic risk. The program encourages Silkroad’s artistic collective to contribute meaningful and impactful work towards building a more hopeful and inclusive world. Seeds support ranges from $1,000 to $8,000, providing investment funding for an initial workshop or development of an idea, to see certain projects through to fruition, or incubate an idea for future Silkroad touring or learning initiatives.

SUPPORT SILKROAD

What would happen if underserved kids from a Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana encounter K-pop sensations in Seoul? Or if musicians brought outreach programs and performances to borderland communities in Lebanon divided along religious, political, socio-economic, and ethnic lines?  Life-changing opportunities would unfold!

Donor support makes exciting new programs like Silkroad Seeds possible. You can help us to invest in innovative artistic programs that promote cross-cultural collaboration and understanding with a gift today. 

While all gifts are appreciated, gifts of $2,500 or more will allow us to have the most impact as we work to expand the Seeds program. Naming opportunities are available for gifts at the $10,000 level or more. Please call Jennifer Klahn at 617-496-1828 to learn more.
