With your assistance, the photography collection will remain a vital, dynamic force in shaping photographic thought and practice.

Gifts for Current Use
Gifts directed for immediate use will support current acquisition needs of the photography collection, such as a single, significant work or a specific collection of images. The Museum will work with you to provide appropriate recognition.

Gifts for Endowment
Gifts directed for acquisition endowment will support collection development in perpetuity, allowing the purchase of photographs that best represent the current and long-term needs of the collection. All donors will have the satisfaction of establishing a permanent resource that provides annual income to sustain and advance the legacy of the photography collection.

A gift of $25,000 or more will establish a permanent endowment acquisition fund named by the donor. Funds can support general collecting goals or underwrite specific purposes, such as acquiring works in certain media, historical or contemporary works, or works by photographers underrepresented in the collection.
