Donor Advised Funds

The Foundation manages donor-advised charitable funds for individuals, families, and institutions who wish to direct their giving toward cultural development. These funds allow donors to make contributions to the Foundation, receive immediate and future tax benefits, and recommend how those contributions are distributed over time. All fund activity is reviewed to ensure alignment with public interest and charitable purpose.

  • Public art and artist commissions

  • Community arts education

Stewardship and Reporting

All charitable funds are held under the Foundation’s fiduciary oversight. Annual statements are provided to fundholders, documenting contributions, grants, and fund balances. All grant recommendations are subject to final review and must comply with the Foundation’s public benefit standards.
