There are as many versions of Memphis as there are Memphians. We have something for everyone… and a soul like no other city’s.
Take a look through MemphisConnect and you’ll understand why the 100+ diverse voices represented are all inspired to call Memphis home.

Are you stuck on what to get everyone on your list for the holidays this year? We are here to help you give creatively and affordably!
On Tuesday, December 1 ArtsMemphis will be open from 10 am to 6 pm for a holiday Open House. You can visit our office on Mendenhall (complete with purple Knoll couches and a convertible conference room), tour the current exhibit of photographs by Murray Riss, and even shop for everything from ArtsMemphis caps (men love the sunset orange color) to Bravo memberships to leather-bound limited editions of First Shooting Light. Memberships make great gifts, start at just $25 and support the arts in our city at the same time. That takes care of your gift-giving and your holiday-do-gooding at the same time!
Since we don’t perform or present, many people ask exactly what we do to raise money for the arts. This is your chance to see us in our East Memphis office and become familiar with your local United Arts Fund. Since we are literally on a mission to raise funds to promote excellence in the arts and build a cultural community for everyone, we invite everyone to stop by and say hello!

MemphisConnect is a partnership between The Leadership Academy, MemphisED and Simple Focus. We provide a gathering place for diverse Memphians to share the opportunities, initiatives and activities that inspire them to make Memphis home.
MemphisConnect is always looking for people who are passionate about Memphis and want to help move our community forward. Get in touch if you have a story for us to share, of if you want to write for us!
