From the Director of Development

I came to the museum in 2016 with a strong background in development work but little experience in the art world. I’ve learned so much about what the Georgia Museum of Art does on a daily basis and how much it serves the core mission of the University of Georgia. It’s more than just collecting and displaying art — although that is crucial. It’s about working with students to help them achieve their dreams in the art world. It’s about connecting with people and showing them how art can improve their lives. It’s about providing free, high-quality art education to people all over the state of Georgia, just as the birthplace of public higher education should. It’s about illuminating the past and pointing the way to the future. But we can’t do any of it without you and your commitment to the art of giving. Here are some of the ways you can support our work, and Go Dawgs!

Your Gift Makes a Difference

The Georgia Museum of Art is free to all, removing barriers to entry. We also offer a wide range of free opportunities that allow our community and state to engage with our programs, exhibitions and collections regardless of ability to pay. We rely on private donations from individuals, corporations and foundations to carry out our mission of collecting, preserving, exhibiting and interpreting significant works of art. There are a variety of ways to give to the museum: gifts of cash, securities, bequests and works of art. Our staff is here to help you make the most of your gift.
