Making Art Accessible to Everyone

The DAI’s mission is to create transformative and diverse experiences, strengthen community connections and inspire imagination through art. We can proudly say that, with your support, we’ve been able to bring art to countless individuals, foster creativity, expand horizons and provide a space for expression and inspiration for more than a century.

However, the journey is far from being complete. We need your support to continue making the world of art accessible to everyone in our community and beyond.

We hope you will consider making a donation to our Annual Fund. Your contribution, no matter the size, helps sustain our programs and makes it possible for us to bring art to those who may not have the opportunity to experience it otherwise (Please consider giving by visiting our donation page).

Many of our supporters give stocks, grants from Donor Advised Funds or make a Qualified Charitable Distribution, all of which are tax-smart ways to give.

Your contribution will not only support the museum, but allow you to join other supporters in uplifting our community through the power of art. Your help ensures the longevity of our programs and the continuation of our mission.

For more information or to make a gift, please utilize the included QR code or contact Kaytee Yantis-Houser at khouser@daytonart.org or 937-512-0140.

Thank you for considering a donation to the Dayton Art Institute. Your generosity truly makes a difference.
