Support

The mission of WAAM is to preserve the history of Woodstock as a Colony of the Arts and to support artists living and working in the region today. According to the National Endowment for the Arts, “rural arts organizations draw more non-local audiences to their venues and report greater civic leadership and customer connectedness than their urban peers.” Rural arts organizations, like WAAM, are economic drivers for small towns attracting local residents and non-local audiences to cultural attractions, local parks, restaurants, hotels, and shops. WAAM relies on the support of the community to present its programs year after year. Donations, membership fees, ticket sales, and grants from local businesses are critical to WAAM’s success. We need your support to produce excellent art exhibitions and engaging education programs, to preserve our collection and archives, and to maintain our landmarked building in the heart of Woodstock.

There are many ways to give to WAAM. We thank our members and donors for their dedication to our mission, and look forward to building new relationships with new supporters of our exhibition, education programs, collection and archives.
