Capital Campaign Fuels classroom expansions and sustainability
Our Capital Campaign is a unique opportunity for you to support the expansion and growth of creativity in York, now and into the future.
There are three key areas of impact: capacity, outreach, and sustainability.
This community investment will allow us to:
- Grow educational capacity with ceramic studio upgrades, exhibition space upgrades, and the creation of a digital arts program.
- Expand outreach with the establishment of a satellite campus in Southern York County, featuring ADA-accessible classrooms, gallery and pottery studio.
- Achieve long-term organizational stability through debt reduction, and sustain additional arts education programs for generations through the support of an endowment fund.
Your investment will mean more creative experiences for more
people. It will have a long lasting effect on the children, adults and community spirit of York County.
Check out our Ways to Give page to learn all the ways you can support creativity.
Thank you for your commitment to York's creative community!
