UBU Residency Sponsorship

The UBU Project is dedicated to making our residencies, workshops and performances available to all schools, LEAs, health care facilities, faith-based communities, civic organizations and tribal populations across the broad socio-economic spectrum as best we possibly can.

Therefore, where needed, we will work in partnership with our host organizations to assist in finding funding streams (either matching or full) to support them in bringing in the student-led, project-based, goal-oriented, arts infused social/emotional arts integration residencies of The UBU Project.

Please contact us for additional funding opportunities:

David Simmons, (he/him), Executive Director info@ubuproject.org
Kim Zinevich, (she/her), Director of Operations ubuproject.ops@gmail.com
