More than ever before, Exit Art is looking to its friends for support as we near the end of our spring season and fiscal year.

The economic downturn has had a significant impact on us this year. We have endured dramatic cuts in both public and private funding and anticipate more of this still to come. In response to these reductions, we have made significant budget cuts, all while maintaining a full exhibition and programming schedule and never once wavering on our commitment to the artists we work with.

As we continue to move forward, individual contributions have become more and more important to the financial health of our organization. We ask the many friends we have made over the years to give what they can so as to sustain and strengthen our programming and operations.

Exit Art strives to stay on the leading edge, to foster artists without gallery or market support, and to make their ideas part of the cultural conversation. Despite our risk-taking spirit – or perhaps as a result – Exit Art has remained a stalwart in the art world thanks to our community of loyal friends.

Our goal is to raise $25,000 in contributions before the end of June so that we can end our fiscal year with a balanced budget and maintain a stable position during these unpredictable times. If everyone chips in what they can, or even just a bit more, we believe we can close the gap.

Please help us minimize the challenges we face by making a gift to Exit Art now. Your support will be immense. In these difficult times, your support means more to us than ever before. Even the smallest gift will make a difference. <Click here to make a 100% tax-deductible donation>

It has grown from a pioneering alternative art space into a model artistic center for the 21st century committed to supporting artists whose quality of work reflects the transformations of our culture.
