The Art League

A nonprofit organization

Today, more than ever, YOUR help is needed to keep The Art League alive and thriving!

YOU can generate artistic opportunities for thousands of people.

Right Now is a critical and exciting time for The Art League and you can join us in preserving and advancing this essential creative community.

YOUR gift will help raise $20,000 through the Mason Hirst Foundation's generous $10,000 matching gift challenge! Your donation will be matched during this campaign.

YOUR gift will help:

  • Build the resources to meet the challenges and opportunities in today’s arts climate
  • Give injured military personnel the means to heal through the process of making art
  • Inspire at-risk youth to express themselves creatively, and offer a safe place to do so
  • Keep the doors open to people of all ages & backgrounds who wouldn't otherwise have access to the visual arts
  • Fill 11,000 class seats in educational programs that foster artistry, collaboration, empathy and exploration

Give now through April 5!

THANK YOU


3 ESSENTIAL FIXES. 2X THE IMPACT. 1 DAY TO GIVE!


We're Almost There!
After months of planning, packing, and rebuilding, The Art League is moving forward in our
new creative classroom spaces—but we need your help to settle in and power up!


This Spring2Action, your gift goes TWICE as far, thanks to a special dollar-for-dollar challenge from the Mason Hirst Foundation. Every $1 you give brings a friend to fund three essential projects:


Electrical Upgrades – Help us light up studios and empower artists.
🚰 Plumbing Fixes – Ensure our sinks, pipes, and kilns are ready for flowing creativity.
❄️ HVAC Replacements – Help keep everybody cool in summer, warm in winter.



This is our challenge—and our opportunity! With Phase Two of our Relocation Project topping $1.2 million, your gift today helps us solve these real, immediate needs to keep doing what we do best: building community through art.


With a generous $20,000 challenge from the Mason Hirst Foundation, we’re on a mission to raise $40,000 to help finish what we started. And you can save the day!


Together, we can flip the switch, plumb the pipes, and keep creativity flowing!
