Garrison Art Centers Endowment Fund
What It Means to Give Forever
When you support the Endowment Fund at Garrison Art Center, you are investing in lasting access to the arts.
​
Unlike annual gifts that support immediate needs, endowment contributions are invested to provide lasting support, generating income that helps sustain our programs year after year. Financial assistance for classes and programs is drawn directly from the Endowment—meaning the more the fund grows, the more opportunities we can provide to artists, students, and families in our community. The Endowment also strengthens the long-term stability of the Art Center.
​
Your gift today helps ensure Garrison Art Center continues to inspire creativity for generations to come.
