Support the Museum—Annual Fund
Many people have fond memories of coming to the Nelson-Atkins for an art class or a grade-school tour. Others have a soft spot for a certain work of art or love to watch the seasons change in the Kansas City Sculpture Park.
Whatever the reasons, art matters to a lot of people. One way to show that ART MATTERS to you is to support the Nelson-Atkins Annual Fund.
The Annual Fund of the Nelson-Atkins provides vital support, over and above membership dues, to sustain the excellence of this exemplary cultural institution.
More than 99% privately funded, the Museum is able to present amazing programs and events, incredible featured exhibitions and free admission because of support from art-minded individuals like you.

Here are some of the ways ART MATTERS to others:
“ART MATTERS to me because it is a way to connect with my daughter. Visiting the Nelson-Atkins has initiated many amazing conversations about art that have evolved into discussions about larger issues.”
Bryan, Shawnee, KS
“ART MATTERS to me because so much of what society has to offer is ephemeral - art is timeless and yet of it's it's time. Art speaks to me through the artist's point of view and how he/she saw their own time/place."
Mark, Kansas City, MO
“ART MATTERS to me because it gives us a new way to look at the world!" Diane, Kansas City, MO
