DONATE

In 2023 we celebrated 75 years of building bridges between art and community 

Bainbridge Arts and Crafts is the only nonprofit art gallery in Kitsap County that supports professional artists’ livelihoods through year-round exhibitions and sales, while also providing completely free art education and outreach to schools, seniors, and the healthcare community. We can’t do what we do without the support of people like you.

By donating to Bainbridge Arts and Crafts, you support…
●    K-12 student artists: who get a chance to exhibit art and develop their talent. We host student shows and award college scholarships to deserving high school seniors. 
●    Local art teachers, who get help obtaining much needed resources. Each year, we distribute grants to fill the gap in their supply and program budgets. We’d like to give them more! We give awards and scholarships to students as well.
●    Seniors in retirement centers, get access to free art education at their residences. Art After 60 serves multiple senior centers, creating transformative opportunities for residents to socialize, share stories, and engage in creative and enriching experiences.
●    People in hospitals and treatment centers, who experience the healing power of art. Our Art Lending and Art in the Lobby programs take artwork and free art activities into healthcare settings, helping to ease stress and promote well-being.
●   Artists! We represent 200 professional Northwest artists, who receive ongoing opportunities to show and sell their work in our gallery and through our monthly special exhibitions.

Please help BAC continue to be a vibrant source of inspiration for the next 75 years—

Consider a legacy gift through your estate plan. Planned Giving can be as simple as including a bequest provision in your will or naming BAC as a beneficiary of your retirement plan or life insurance policy. Making a gift through your will or living trust is one of the easiest ways to support your favorite organization(s)!

Your gift, no matter the size, will help ensure that coming generations will enjoy the arts and programming that you value today. Through planned giving you can support the areas most meaningful to you—whether it’s BAC’s  exhibitions, public programs, or outreach and education initiatives, or an unrestricted gift to help grow BAC’s endowment fund.
