Gifts of Art

Great works of art have the power to inspire passion, provoke thought, and spark the imagination. Since the Museum’s founding in 1914, the BMA’s world-class collection has grown in size and stature with gifts of art from generous members of the community. A major component of the In A New Light Campaign is the effort to secure important works of art that strengthen and deepen the BMA collection. Through the BMA’s 100th birthday in 2014, we are asking donors to commit important works of art to the Museum.

Your gift of art to the BMA will enhance the cultural life of this community in the century ahead.
