Fine Line Creative Arts Center Endowment Fund

Established 2007

Fine Line Creative Arts Center
Fine Line Creative Arts Center

Fine Line Creative Arts Center was created to promote public awareness of the arts and their impact on our well being, to support art experiences, and to nurture the creative spirit within a comfortable, inspirational environment.

Currently located in a restored barn on four acres in the St. Charles countryside, Fine Line opened its doors in September of 1979 as a small gallery on James Street in Geneva, Illinois.

Since that time, it has relocated twice and grown to be one of only a few regional art centers in this country.

Over 1,000 students participate in more than 200 class offerings each year.

Quality in artistic expression and the support of a community of creative persons can be found in this artistic oasis.

A community foundation is a donor-driven organization that helps donors custom-design funds that reflect their charitable interests. Through the years, grants from these funds have made a significant impact on our local communities.

…you can always start small, even $25 can make a difference. Remember we can’t take our money with us. Even if it’s just your gift of time. Volunteer and get involved.

Thank you very much for supporting my college education for these four years. I will never be able to repay you for the opportunity that this scholarship has given to me.

We chose the Community Foundation because of its reputation. It’s well known, established and we can trust them to do the job for us.

There’s no question in my mind that the scholarship I received opened up possibilities.

Marianne Renner

Past Scholarship Recipient & Current Leadership Coach

As a first-generation college student from a low-income family, I was worried about how I was going to pay for books and supplies. This scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies instead of worrying about how to afford college. I am working to not only create opportunities for myself but to motivate future generations. Thank you so much for helping me along this journey!
