support The Painting Center!

Donate

For over 31 years, The Painting Center has been a vital hub where painting thrives in all its forms and media. We have proudly mounted more than 700 exhibitions, showcased the work of diverse artists, launched careers, and hosted countless educational events—all free and open to the public.

As an independent, artist-run nonprofit, we prioritize supporting the creative community over chasing market trends. But to continue this mission, we need your help! The challenges of the post pandemic economy have left us with funding gaps, and we are reaching out now to ask for your support.

Your Support Matters

Every contribution, no matter the size, directly impacts our ability to:

  • Provide exhibition opportunities to emerging, mid-career and established artists.

  • Host free public programming, including panel discussions, artist talks and workshops.

  • Keep our gallery accessible to everyone, offering a space where creativity and community thrive.

  • Preserve our archives, celebrating the artists who've enriched The Painting Center over the years.

Your generosity ensures The Painting Center remains a home for artists, and a place where the art community can connect, grow, and inspire.
