Amplify Arts

AMPLIFY ARTS is a new Broward Center initiative which aims to elevate and support local artists and emerging arts organizations with the goal of helping them reach a wider audience and develop their skills as professional presenters. There will be opportunities for South Florida artists in a wide variety of performing arts genres to bring their talents to Broward Center venues throughout the year. Others will be invited to showcase their performances at Rhythm by the River scheduled for February 2026 in Esplanade Park, a free community event celebrating the range of talent across our region.

Through AMPLIFY ARTS, the Broward Center will provide support that may include venue subsidies, technical and production assistance, strategic marketing and ticketing support, and community connections designed to allow participating artists and organizations to deliver programming that is relevant, reaches new audiences and reflects the mosaic of cultures in our South Florida community.

In the 2025/2026 season, the Broward Center’s AMPLIFY ARTS initiative is made possible by Wayne and Lucretia Weiner, Baptist Health and TD Charitable Foundation.

Rhythm by the River 2026 is presented by Baptist Health and JM Family Enterprises, Inc., with additional support from Funding Arts Broward and TD Charitable Foundation.
