Did you know that every $1 spent on the arts generates $7 in return for our local economy?
The York Art Association has been a part of our community since 1905. In 2022, YAA served over 500 students through our classes, workshops, and exhibitions. Out of those 500 students, 169 were K-12 students.
We cannot continue to grow without YOUR continued support, so for 2023's Give Local York, YAA is asking for your support to help us continue our mission to help develop an interest in the visual arts all across our county. With your support, YAA is focusing on modernizing our art and classroom equipment and expanding our community involvement initiatives.
Your donation will support:
offsetting instructional material costs such as costs to cover figure drawing models
offsetting and expanding costs for additional artist education and development through events
supplies for our kids’ programs including summer camps and year-round classes
updated classroom equipment
continue to offer and expand free Gallery exhibitions to the York community
We need you and your help to spread the word, so consider:
Sharing and sharing alike.
Online days of giving are successful because of our own networks. Help us grow our network by sending this blog post to your friends and family.
Be socially (media) active.
Use your social media networks: post on Facebook and share information about Give Local York and the York Art Association and share your love for the arts. Ask others to do the same.
Become a fundraising champion.
Everyone loves a champion, including us! We really need fundraising champions to help drive people to our Give Local York profile on May 5th. Contact us for more information on how to become a fundraising champion!
Did you know, the York Art Association is mainly supported by volunteers? Apart from two paid part-time employees, we have many hands and hearts volunteering to bring fine arts to York County. Your donation helps keep this mission alive.
Thank you in advance for your time, support, and talents as we make 2023’s Give Local York the best yet!
