Looking for a suggested donation amount? A contribution of ANY amount will help us reach our goal, but sometimes it’s helpful to think about what sort of impact your money could have. Consider these examples:

• Creating take-home “art cards” with color pictures and information about the artworks that visiting students can see, costs $1.50 per set.

• Providing an art activity for a class of 25 students, costs $45.

• Paying for a bus to bring a class to the Museum costs $175.

• Producing each virtual docent tour costs $500.

Every year, the Albuquerque Museum Foundation underwrites the cost for 10,000+ students from our community to connect with art and history exhibits at the Albuquerque Museum, offering many underprivileged children their only chance to visit a museum. By providing complimentary buses, underwriting take-home art activities, and supporting the creation of docent-led video tours, the Foundation sustains a vital educational resource for our community.

Any contribution you make will be incredibly helpful and will go toward the greatest need within the Albuquerque Museum’s education programs.
