WELCOME TO THE MAY GIVING CAMPAIGN!

Did you know that 70% of the funding we receive and generate goes directly towards supporting our exhibitions and programs? Because of this percentage, our May Giving Campaign is a foundational pillar of support for us. You will be able to see your dollars in action this Fall when you participate in our May Giving Campaign where funds raised will bolster our Fall 2024 exhibiting artist Demond Melancon. Will you help us reach our $30,000 goal in support of Demond Melancon and the Halsey Institute’s 40th Anniversary?

Now, as part of our May Giving Campaign, we’re excited to announce several opportunities for you to not only support our mission but also win fun experiences and prizes + take advantage of month-long perks. Whether you become a new Member, renew your membership, or donate,  you’re not only contributing to our $30,000 goal but you’ll also be entered into our May Giving Raffles. Join us in celebrating our 40th Anniversary by giving back to the Halsey Institute and potentially scoring awesome prizes!
