Chicago’s Driehaus Foundation is on a grant-giving roll. Just a month after awarding sizable legacy grants to a trio of hometown organizations (Preservation Chicago, the Arts Work Fund, and the Better Government Foundation) and South Carolina’s American College of the Building Arts, the philanthropic organization established by the late Richard Driehaus has announced its latest act of largesse: a $2 million grant to the Institute of Classical Art and Architecture (ICAA). The grant is the largest such award bestowed to the New York City–based ICAA, which was formed in 2002 following the merger of the Institute of Classical Architecture and Classical America. Today, the nonprofit maintains 15 regional chapter organizations based in Florida, Texas, Louisiana, North Carolina, and beyond.
The grants awarded so far this year by the Driehaus Foundation, now including the $2 million grant to the ICAA, are the largest in its 31-year history.
