Programs

Fully Funded

These programs would not exist if it were not for the funding through the Foundation. The Annual Juried show is one of the most popular annual shows and continues to grow in the number of artists submitting work each year. The juror is flown in from one of the leading art museums in the U.S.

For these programs we supplement the Center’s budget to make the program more extensive, and sometimes even possible. The support could be as simple as helping to pay for an instructor/assistant, or as extensive as buying a kiln or computer with animation software.
