Gifts to the Art Department represent investments in the students who study here and those that guide them. Support from our alumni and friends enables the Department to provide assistance for deserving undergraduates, attract the brightest graduate students, retain talented faculty and staff, and pursue bold initiatives like a new art building to even better serve future artists and art educators.
All donors have the option of designating how their gifts are used. For example: undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, visiting artists, professional development, or for specific areas of interest (e.g. ceramics, painting, printmaking/graphics, art metals, sculpture, etc.). The Department uses undesignated gifts wherever the needs are deemed greatest.
You have many options for making a gift to the Art Department. Gifts of cash, stock, or in-kind gifts can provide immediate impact. Planned gifts can leave a legacy for future generations.
