We’re pleased to introduce The Halsey Collective, our new giving program that consolidates our donor and member programs. Whether you wish to donate once or become a sustaining member, this is our shift away from a traditional museum membership model toward one that lets you contribute at a level meaningful to you while helping us build a broader, more sustainable base of support. It’s a model designed to strengthen connections, increase access, and better reflect the community that makes our work possible.
As a member of The Halsey Collective, you are part of a community of supporters who sustain both the present and future of the Halsey. As a free, public, non-collecting art museum, we rely on your support to champion artists, encourage experimentation, and create space for dialogue and discovery. Your participation helps bring exhibitions to life, sustains the work behind the scenes, and ensures the Halsey remains open, responsive, and accessible in a rapidly changing city. You are supporting the art of now.
To recognize your generosity, each giving level includes a range of ‘appreciations’ and opportunities for deeper engagement with the Halsey and its community. You can opt out of receiving your ‘appreciations’ on the giving page. Though we will still appreciate you.
