IUSB Arts Foundation

Supporting the Ernestine M. Raclin School of the Arts at IU South Bend

About the foundation

Our mission is to support events and programs of the Ernestine M. Raclin School of the Arts with an emphasis on education, entertaining, and involving young people. We've been supporting the arts and arts students at IU South Bend since 1991 through funding for study abroad, educational experiences, performance opportunities, and professional development.

“Italy was such an amazing opportunity to be able to immerse myself in a new culture. I believe my artistic abilities improved drastically when studying abroad. I highly recommend everyone to study abroad, you will not regret it!”
