Since its inception in 1975, the Danforth Museum of Art has supported itself through earned income, contributed goods and services, and generous contributions and grants from individuals, foundations, corporations and, minimally, government agencies.

We are enlisting your support, as a member of the region's business community, to help us foster and enhance this cultural treasure. Now more than ever your support is necessary to provide community access to art and cultural experiences.

Become a Corporate Member of the Danforth Museum and support a wide-range of exhibitions, educational programs, fine arts courses and events.

"Gorman Richardson Architects continues to be a strong supporter of the Danforth Museum of Art and its various programs. The exhibits, whether from the permanent collection or on loan, are exceptional and always appeal to a wide audience. The museum school continues its tradition of excellent art education. We feel that the Danforth is a key cultural asset of the MetroWest area."
