Partners: Supporting Art at the Heart of Princeton


 
Mrs. Candela

The Partners of the Princeton University Art Museum include a distinguished group of Museum benefactors who contribute $2,500 or more annually (contributions are tax deductible less $125). As philanthropists and art patrons, Partners provide a sustained and essential source of unrestricted support for special exhibitions, publications, conservation, and acquisitions, as well as a variety of educational programs and focused initiatives. These vital funds profoundly enhance our ability to engage in scholarship and research, and insure that the Museum remains a social and cultural center of campus life, a nexus for continuing education among Princeton's widespread alumni, and a welcoming place of shared enrichment for our wider community of visitors.

The most essential part of your commitment as a Partner is philanthropic—assuring the Museum's continuing vitality. Yet you benefit as well, gaining access to many special learning opportunities, both formal and informal. In appreciation for this important level of support, Partners enjoy all of the benefits of membership, as well as special privileges which include all Museum publications, intimate opportunities to interact with the Director or Museum curators, regular e-newsletters from the Director with advance notice of Museum activities and upcoming exhibitions, and invitations to special events in Princeton and elsewhere. Partners are recognized for their support in select Museum publications. To become a Partner, or for additional information, please contact Jennifer Fekete-Donners, Manager of Membership and Annual Support at (609) 258-3762.
