JSMA at 90… and beyond!

As we celebrate the JSMA’s 90 th year serving audiences on campus and beyond, it’s thanks to generous donors and members like you that the JSMA is a vibrant center for arts and education.

All gifts and memberships to the JSMA support our mission to foster global understandings of art and cultural histories working with faculty, students, and communities to contribute to a more just, equitable, and sustainable world. Endowment gifts are particularly meaningful as they offer a dependable, perpetual source of funding because, each year only a portion of the fund is spent, while the remainder is added to the principal for growth. An endowment is a perpetual gift – a lasting legacy – that supports your passion and sustains the museum for years to come.

Did you know that the JSMA has endowment funds for nearly all areas of the museum that you can support with a one-time gift, annual gift, or estate gift? The museum benefits from unrestricted endowment funds that provide for museum operations, facility needs, and staffing as well as restricted endowments that support K-12 and community outreach programs, art acquisitions and conservation, museum internships, and more.

Endowments are the best way to support your passion and ensure the financial stability of the museum at 90, 100, and beyond!

Looking back…
