Artful Impact 2024:
Fueling Creativity, Inspiring Community
This Giving Tuesday, join the Gainesville Fine Arts Association (GFAA) in making an Artful Impact! With a kick-off on Giving Tuesday and running from December 3 - 31, your support will help us overcome challenges, champion creativity, and ensure the arts continue to flourish in Gainesville.
A Critical Need for Support:
This year, GFAA faced a $40,000 loss in state funding, making your contributions more vital than ever. These funds are essential to sustaining our programs, exhibitions, and community space. Together, we can fill this gap and ensure the arts remain accessible and thriving for all.
Why Your Support Matters:
Art brings people together, inspires change, and enriches lives. By contributing to GFAA, you’ll directly support:
-
Accessible art exhibitions and workshops
-
A vibrant community space for events, gatherings, and creative expression
-
Resources and opportunities for local artists
Ways to Make an Impact:
-
Donate Online: Every dollar counts.
-
Spread the Word: Share our campaign with your friends, family, and networks.
-
Become a Sustaining Supporter: Set up a monthly or yearly donation to support GFAA year-round.
-
Match Donations: Double each donor's impact by committing to a set match amount (can be great advertising for your business!).
Our Goal:
We’re aiming to raise $15,000 by December 31 to not only make up for the loss of funding but to propel our mission into the new year (GFAA's 102nd year as an organization!) With your help, we can make this happen!
Let’s Create Together:
Be part of something extraordinary. Together, we can make an Artful Impact that resonates far beyond 2024.
*NOTE TO DONOR: If you want to opt out of adding a donation to this free platform (Zeffy), just click on the down arrow by the suggested 15% and select 'other' and put a zero in there. This is optional and totally up to you!
