As of 2022, Fuse Ensemble is supported by Fuse Ensemble Arts Collective, (FEAC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to advance the awareness of, and opportunities for living composers and collaborating visual and media artists with whom they work, and by regularly celebrating the work of artists in the global majority. FEAC wishes to expose audiences to a wide range of artistic perspectives and insights to encourage the growth of a more vibrant new music community. A spirit of conversation with the present moment and the people in it is what drives their work and is something they hold dear.

Bringing creative, relevant, new music happenings into the world at this moment in time is a unique opportunity to celebrate the beauty of what is currently being birthed all around us amidst the symphony of our evolving relationship with each other. Fuse Ensemble values artistic belonging in all its forms.
