Support art, education and community through the Dayton Art Institute Annual Fund!
Art inspires. Art connects. Art helps us see the world and each other in new ways.
At the Dayton Art Institute, art means something different to every visitor. For some, it is a place of creativity and discovery. For others, it is a source of education, reflection, joy or community. What remains true is that art has the power to enrich all of our lives and your support helps make those experiences possible.
Contributions to the Annual Fund provide essential support for the Dayton Art Institute’s daily operations and long term future. Gifts of every size help sustain this community treasure by caring for the museum’s collection, bringing world class exhibitions to Dayton and creating meaningful experiences for visitors throughout the Miami Valley.
Your generosity helps students discover connections between art, history, math and science through hands on learning experiences they may not otherwise have access to. It also supports the training of volunteer Museum Guides who teach more than 10,000 students each year through engaging gallery experiences. From young children and families to lifelong learners, your gift helps the museum continue to serve audiences of all ages!
As one of the region’s premier fine art museums, the Dayton Art Institute is committed to making art accessible, inspiring and impactful for our entire community. Your support ensures that the arts and arts education continue to thrive in the Miami Valley for generations to come.
Every gift makes a difference. Thank you for helping preserve the art, history, education and creativity that make the Dayton Art Institute such a special place.
