Support Local Arts and Culture with a One-Time Gift

Since 1971, Fairmount Center for the Arts has helped people of all ages discover their creativity, build confidence, and find community through the arts. Tuition covers only half of what makes this work possible. Your generosity helps sustain inspiring arts experiences, provide student scholarships, bring programs into the community, and create opportunities for artists and performers to share their talents. Together, we keep art within reach and support creative journeys at every stage of life.

All supporters of Fairmount Center for the Arts are welcomed into Friends of Fairmount, an arts-loving group of individuals who give monetary support to ensure the continuation of visual and performing arts in the community.

All Friends of Fairmount receive year-long benefits! Learn More.
