The Farber Foundation is a private foundation dedicated to promoting, supporting, and fostering awareness of contemporary Cuban art and culture. Established by art collectors Howard and Patricia Farber, its goal is to encourage broader recognition for this vibrant international culture.

To promote broader international awareness of Cuban art and culture, The Farber Foundation maintains the website Cuban Art News (www.cubanartnews.org). With a mix of news, original content, links and information, Cuban Art News offers updates on Cuban art and cultural activities worldwide. It covers art exhibitions, film festivals, dance performances, new books of interest, and other cultural topics.

In its previous funding cycles the Farber Foundation has supported the work of US-based nonprofit cultural organizations, providing strategic funding up to $5,000 per grant to support projects that explore Cuban art and culture.

This year, the Farber Foundation is supporting a major initiative for 2012-2013. As a result, the Foundation is not accepting applications for grants in the 2012 funding cycle.
