Gifts of art
The Currier Museum of Art also accepts gifts of art. If you would like the museum to consider works of art for donation, please send an image of the work along with relevant information to curatorialdept@currier.org. The museum’s curators will review the work and determine whether it fits into the scope of the museum’s collection. Works of art may also be accepted for resale or charity auction to generate funds for museum programs.
The museum is not able to appraise works of art. You may contact one of the following organizations: American Society of Appraisers, Appraisers Association of America, or Art Dealers Association of America.
We encourage you to consult with your financial advisor or attorney to determine if a giving option is right for you.
