With Thanks
The museum’s vitality and growth would not be possible without grants from foundations and governmental agencies, which play a central role in making NMWA a vibrant force locally, nationally, and internationally.
Donations help the museum present exhibitions, educational programs, and publications featuring the work of women artists. Our success requires the support of generous donors who recognize the value of women artists, past and present.
