Citi has pledged $250,000 to establish a performing arts grant fund honoring LeAnne Selman, the Palm Harbor resident killed in a shooting at the company's Hillsborough County campus on Nov. 4.

The money will go to Community Foundation Tampa Bay to establish the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Fund, according to WTSP. A Citi spokesperson said the fund will be dedicated to supporting local artists in the region, the station reported.

According to WTSP's description of the foundation's website, the fund will offer grants to nonprofit organizations and initiatives that help local artists develop their craft, showcase their work and connect with audiences. Residents can also contribute through the foundation's donation page.

Remembering LeAnne Selman

Selman, 41, had worked with Citi for nine years. She was a fire dancer, belly dancer and hula hooper who performed with Hip Expressions and other dance companies, Fox 13 reported. Some of her friends had danced with her for two decades.

Friends described Selman to Fox 13 as deeply humble, someone who wanted to see every person around her succeed.

Steven Phillips, a friend of Selman's, told Fox 13: "She had a way of making you feel like you were taking the exact right amount of space."

Johanna Zenobia Taylor, who owns Hip Expressions, described Selman to Fox 13 as a friendly, supportive presence backstage and a radiant performer on stage.

Shooting at Citi campus

Selman was outside eating lunch on Nov. 4 when a gunman drove through a fence and into an outdoor courtyard at the Citibank campus, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. She was shot and killed.

Performing arts community pays tribute

Selman had been scheduled to dance in the annual Tribal Burn at Sacred Lands Preservation on Saturday, Nov. 7. Her friends went ahead with the show. They placed a memorial for Selman beside the stage, where a small fire illuminated the tribute, according to Fox 13.

The Tampa Bay Performing Arts Fund will honor Selman's memory by supporting the artistic community she was part of.

Donations to the fund can be made through Community Foundation Tampa Bay.
