We're thrilled to share that we are part of a matching opportunity through the Grand Rapids Area Community Foundation to help grow our endowment. This is a great way to support our mission of inspiring a creative community for years to come! 🥰🎨

🎨 Help Grow the Future of the Arts—Your Gift Doubled
MacRostie Art Center has been inspiring creativity in our region for 60 years—and now you can help ensure that legacy continues for generations to come.

Thanks to a special matching opportunity, every new gift to the MacRostie Art Center Endowment Fund will be matched dollar-for-dollar (up to $25,000).

That means your support goes twice as far—helping provide exhibitions, arts education, and creative opportunities across our community while building a lasting resource for the future.

✨ Double your impact. Support the arts. Strengthen our community.
