Support the Carter
Your gift to the Amon Carter Museum will inspire imaginations and enrich lives. Contributions provide support for special exhibitions, education programs for both children and adults, family activities, and the care of the museum’s collection of American art.
How to Contribute
There are several ways to support the Carter:
For more information, please contact the development office at 817.738.1933, or e-mail development@cartermuseum.org.
Annual Fund
Annual Fund contributions go directly toward museum operations, thereby enabling the Carter to continue presenting the high quality exhibitions and nationally recognized education programs that the community has come to know and value. Sustaining a strong Annual Fund is all the more critical in the current environment of stretched budgets and shrinking resources. We appreciate your help as we strive to achieve our 2008 Annual Fund goal of $300,000.
Gifts in Honor or in Memory
Gifts can be made to honor a loved one or commemorate the life of a family member or special friend. These gifts recognize a special person, commemorate a birthday or anniversary, or help establish and preserve someone’s legacy. These gifts are used where support is needed most, and the Carter is deeply grateful for such gifts. A letter of acknowledgment and appreciation will be sent to the donor, as will a letter to the recipient of a gift apprising them of the donation in their honor.
Gift Membership
This unique and thoughtful gift provides a wonderful year of member benefits at the Carter, including free admission to special exhibitions; a subscription to the museum’s award-winning magazine, Program; discounts in the Museum Store; and members-only invitations to previews, special events, tours, and programs.
