Corporate Giving
Business leaders in Rochester understand the value that art brings to the quality of life in our community. Nowhere is that value more apparent than at the Memorial Art Gallery. Year after year, MAG offers the public a wide variety of educational programs and special events, and draws important art exhibitions to Rochester. Your support makes these activities possible—while linking your company’s name with a thriving, highly visible arts institution.
For Ever Better Campaign
Join us for art that inspires and informs, ever better. Help us build and sustain MAG’s exceptional team, integrate art across school curriculums, transform our indoor and outdoor spaces, and make art accessible for everyone.
Tribute and Memorial Giving
Many Gallery members and friends choose to honor or memorialize individuals through tribute gifts to the museum. These unique gifts both recognize friends and loved ones and support MAG’s mission. Each gift receives a special acknowledgment from the Director.
Planned Giving
In the late 1930s, Mrs. Samuel Gould memorialized her daughter, Marion, through a major bequest to MAG for the purchase of artwork. Her generosity and vision helped make MAG an internationally recognized art museum. Leave your legacy by including MAG in your estate or retirement plans and become a member of the Marion Stratton Gould Society. The Society honors and celebrates philanthropic individuals who have committed a planned gift to MAG. For more information, or if you have already included MAG in your plans, please contact Jamie Beers at 585.276.8936.
