Art elevates the everyday. It allows us to express ourselves, dream and work for the future, and cultivate our own creativity. At WMA, art gives all of us the tools to tell and understand the complex but ‘everyday’ stories of the South. WMA uses art to communicate unique perspectives that allow us to learn, live, and work together to create new opportunities and build a stronger, more empathetic Wiregrass community.
Will you consider making a gift online to WMA that will strengthen our mission in the year ahead?
Your contributions will support free community programs like Watercolor Collective and Write Night, that promote self-expression and cultural sharing. Donations help cover the cost of transportation for Bus on Us field trips, making learning through art fun and affordable for more than 5,000 area students this year, and help sustain WMA’s in-gallery learning and free digital app, connecting generations to art in the museum’s collection.
Giving to WMA cultivates a creative ecosystem for programs like WMA Teens, creating pathways for arts careers and greater arts participation in the Wiregrass. Your generosity also provides needed support for emerging and established artists in the Southeast to create new exhibitions and connect our community through art.
Thank you for making a meaningful gift to our Wiregrass community through the visual arts at WMA!
