We Need the Arts

The arts are more important now than ever. Participating in the arts connects people and communities. It brings joy and inspiration to people’s lives. It helps relieve stress making it easier to cope in challenging times.

The Schweinfurth Art Center is committed to providing arts connections for people through this pandemic and beyond. We responded to the challenge by creating online classes, camps, and exhibits. We created a new series of virtual artist talks and studio visits featuring artists from as far away as Durban, South Africa, and as close as Syracuse, NY. We created outdoor public art exhibits, including a video projection on the front of our building during the shutdown. We created a virtual 3-D version of our Quilts=Art=Quilts exhibit. And we are planning more programs for 2021 to provide opportunities for you to take a class, be inspired by an exhibit, or visit an artist’s studio.

We need your help to sustain our programs and activities through the remaining months of the pandemic. The loss of revenue from our programs is significant.

Please consider making a year end gift to support the Schweinfurth Art Center. A donation this year will help sustain our programs and position us to move forward with our long term goals. Your gift would be an important investment in our future.

Thank you for considering a donation.
