About this foundation

The Levitt Family Foundation exists to strengthen the social fabric of America by partnering with communities to activate underused outdoor public spaces through free, live music. Its primary grant programs (Levitt Venues, Levitt AMP, Levitt VIBE, Levitt BLOC, and Festivals) provide matching support and capacity-building to U.S.-based nonprofit presenters. The Foundation emphasizes inclusive, community-driven proposals that create catalytic impact, and it is spending down assets by 2041 to accelerate support for free outdoor concerts and field-building. Levitt also supports research, partnerships, and convenings to expand music ecosystems nationwide.

Funding focus

We partner with communities to activate underused outdoor spaces, creating welcoming, inclusive destinations where the power of free, live music brings people together and invigorates community life.
