Annual Fund Donations
Gifts to the Museum’s Annual Fund are essential to the CRMA, providing funds for what you see in the galleries and for what happens behind the scenes. No matter the size of your gift, your unrestricted donation is the most important support the Museum receives. Your Annual Fund gift, above and beyond membership dues, provides the Museum with the flexibility to allocate funds where they are needed most…so the Museum can continue to excite, engage, and educate our community and visitors for future generations.
Endowment Gifts
Endowment gifts provide critical annual operation support in perpetuity.
Memorial Gifts
Memorial gifts can be made in honor of a loved one. These gifts recognize a special person, commemorate a birthday or anniversary, or help establish and preserve someone’s legacy. Memorial gifts to the CRMA are allocated to where the support is needed most.
Planned Gifts—The William Quarton Legacy Circle
One of the best ways to support the Museum of Art is to make it part of your planned giving strategy. In honor of William B. Quarton, one of the CRMA’s most generous benefactors, the Museum has established the William Quarton Legacy Circle. Members need only inform the Museum of their intent to name the CRMA in their planned giving to belong. There are several ways to make a planned gift to the CRMA. Some forms of planned gifts include:
A bequest
Gifts of stock or real estate
Estate gifts
Life insurance policies
Living trusts
Gift annuities
