Why sustainer support matters
Sustainer gifts to the New Bedford Art Museum are automatic, monthly, recurring gifts of unrestricted operating support. They build a source of revenue over and above our membership and admissions income to fund our work — a reliable and predictable stream of general operating support that's vital and critical to our mission.
A steady stream of monthly gifts lets the museum plan ahead, rather than relying on one-time donations, so we can focus on bringing more art experiences to the community all year long.
