What do we do?

The Charitable Arts Foundation (CAF) established in 1995, is a registered non-profit organization that raises funds in order to support endeavors in arts and culture throughout The Bahamas. The primary source of fundraising has been gala dinners with art auctions and musical performances, supported by a cross section of Bahamian citizens, residents, visitors and corporate entities. 

CAF grants are considered in the following categories: FINE ART, DANCE, THEATRE, MUSIC, FILM, WRITING, CURATING, DESIGN and other related creative fields.  Grant applications are evaluated based on need, merit and the long term impact on the cultural landscape of The Bahamas.

The President of the CAF is Dionisio D’Aguilar and Board members are H. Campbell Cleare, Amanda Coulson, Dawn Davies, Sarah Farrington, Maria Ferere, Adrian D’Aguilar, Saskia D’Aguilar, Tracie Hoo Glinton, Deborah Lotmore, Terry North, Patrice Paton, Vaughn Roberts, Keri Sherman, Antonius Roberts, and Natascha Vazquez Pyfrom.
