Transform is more than a fundraising campaign. It is a movement to invest in what matters most: creativity, community, and impact. Together, we will support projects that bring artists and communities into lasting partnership, expand scholarships for students who lead through creativity and social change, and grow our capacity for innovation across every discipline in the College of Fine and Applied Arts (FAA).
Our mission is simple yet profound: to unleash creativity as a civic force. The artists, designers, planners, and performers who study at FAA are not only mastering their craft — they are learning to confront the urgent challenges of our time with imagination and courage. Gifts to Transform will provide scholarships for students who are leading social impact through their chosen fields of art and design. Your support will have a direct and immediate impact for deserving students that may be struggling due to financial constraints.
Together, we will ensure that the arts at Illinois continue to inspire, innovate, and lead. Your gift fuels the next artists, designers, architects, scholars, teachers, performers, and planners that will go on to creatively address the world’s challenges. Invest in the future of the arts with a gift to Transform today.
