Nobody values Chicago’s vibrant arts scene more than we do. Not only do arts and culture form the foundation of Newcity’s editorial coverage and our advertising revenue, but we’re passionate consumers of everything we cover on a personal level. Arts are our life.

We know how tough these economic times are for everyone, and want to do what we can to help. So we’ve created a program to use our media resources in print and online to help Chicago’s arts-related nonprofits raise money, and we’re calling it Newcity Hearts Arts. We hope you’ll do what you can to keep Chicago’s arts world as vibrant as possible.

In 2012, we supported eight arts fundraisers with a total of $10,534 in donated media. We’re ready to increase that total in 2013 in every direction.
