The mission of the Sue Goetz Ross and Stephen S. Roberts Music Fund, through the legacy gift made by Stephen Roberts and its association with the Permanent Fund for Northern Virginia, is dedicated to forever supporting the arts and culture sector within the region.
The Ross-Roberts Fund for the Arts aims to construct a dynamic, top-tier arts and culture sector. This includes celebrating artistic achievements, increasing the capabilities of current arts organizations, aiding in the development of new arts groups, enhancing the understanding of the arts' essential role in fostering healthy communities, and encouraging support for the arts.
