About Us
For more than three decades, The 500, Inc. has been raising vital financial, volunteer and training support for the Dallas Arts Community. Founded in 1965, the organization began when a group of 500 individuals pledged $10 each to raise money for the Dallas Civic Opera.
From its initial goal of raising $5,000 for the Opera, The 500, Inc. has grown to be an important institution in the cultural landscape of Dallas. The 500, Inc.'s mission now includes three cornerstones of activity: to raise money for the Arts, to serve the Arts with talent, time and services and to train, interest and educate its Members about the Arts.
Since its founding, The 500, Inc.'s mission has grown to support Dallas' visual, theatrical and musical Arts. The organization has donated over $12 million and countless volunteer hours to support our mission of a healthy Arts Community.
