SPONSOR OUR 90TH ANNIVERSARY

For 90 years, Richmond Art Center has been a creative hub for artists, students, and neighbors. Founded in 1936 during the Great Depression by local artist and educator Hazel Salmi as part of a Works Progress Administration (WPA) project, Richmond Art Center was built with the vision and belief that art benefits the public, especially in challenging times. Over nine decades, we have grown alongside the city of Richmond, responding to change, welcoming new communities, and sustaining Salmi’s original vision. >>Learn more about Richmond Art Center’s history<<

As a sponsor of our 90th Anniversary, your support goes beyond celebrating a milestone. It advances our mission of arts education for youth and adults, and ensures Richmond Art Center continues as a vital public institution where everyone can see, make, and enjoy art.
