Unlock the Challenge

This summer, FWM needs you to Unlock the Challenge! The Marion Boulton “Kippy” Stroud Foundation has offered us a challenge grant opportunity. All new gifts made in the next eight weeks will unlock a challenge gift of the same amount.

Keeping FWM a vibrant hub for artistic exploration, where emerging talents dare to dream and renowned artists push boundaries in thrilling new ways, is a job for all of us! When you give to the Unlock the Challenge! campaign, you will support artists from the internationally recognized to our communities’ most promising apprentices and K-12 students in our public schools.

Join us in bringing to our community groundbreaking contemporary art and high-quality arts educational experiences by making a gift today.
