Catalyst 8’s Boost Program
100% of funds raised by Catalyst 8 fuel the Boost Program. Boost awards rental subsidies to Austin area emergent and underserved arts groups. Boost offsets costs so that a wider diversity of performances and audiences can experience The Long Center’s world class stages. Since its inception in 2007, Boost has awarded 24 arts groups more than $40,000 in rental subsidies.
