A New Look for a Timeless Mission

If our new look caught your eye—good. That was the point.

Because The Cultural Trust has always been more than a behind-the-scenes funder. We are a champion, a convener, and a catalyst for the cultural vibrancy that makes the Quad Cities not only livable—but lovable.

And while our work remains rooted in long-term support, our refreshed brand reflects the present: bold, focused, and deeply aligned with our six Legacy Partners, who bring this vision to life every. single. day.

From museum galleries to science centers, botanical gardens to bustling classrooms, these partners are not just enriching lives—they’re shaping the very identity of our region. Together, we’re ensuring that art and culture aren’t reserved for a few. They’re made accessible, relevant, and resonant for everyone in the Quad Cities.

This collaborative model is what makes The Cultural Trust so unique. We don’t fund programs at random. We invest in infrastructure, in vision, and in partnerships that amplify impact across the region.

So yes, we have a new logo. A new look. A more modern way to tell our story.

But what hasn’t changed—and never will—is our commitment to our Legacy Partners, our region, and the belief that culture is not a luxury. It’s a daily necessity. One that deserves long-term investment, shared vision, and a community that values what it means to feel, think, and grow—together.

We’re proud to reflect that mission more clearly now.

And we’re just getting started.
