Join the Saltonstall Foundation in supporting artists and their art-making

Dear Friends,

THE CONSTANCE SALTONSTALL FOUNDATION FOR THE ARTS provides the time, resources and space needed to support and inspire artists at the most critical point in the creative process.

Through your support of the Saltonstall Foundation, you make an investment in the diverse voices of individual artists and writers of New York State. The majority of cultural philanthropy goes to organizations and institutions. Very few resources are available to support the individuals who create the paintings and sculptures, photographs, poetry, essays and novels before they find their audience.

Your direct, vital support allows you to assist the lives of many artists and writers who make the artworks that add value and interest to our communities and help define contemporary culture.

We gratefully accept contributions, including donations of property (such as securities and real estate) and gifts-in-kind. Your gift to the Constance Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts will be directed in its entirety to support our Individual Artist Grants and Fellowships.

We offer donors a unique opportunity to establish a named Annual Fellowship in honor or in memory of an individual, while an Endowed Fellowship will leave a legacy that will survive you and assist countless artists through the years. Endowment pledges may be fulfilled over a number of years. They offer immediate and long-range tax benefits and simultaneously provide significant support for artists today and for years to come.
We welcome individuals and artists, art patrons, foundations, businesses and corporations that wish to invest in creativity and support art at its source. All contributions are fully tax-deductible to the extent provided by law.

To make a gift to the Saltonstall Foundation, please click here, or make your gift by mail, or call us at 607.539.3146. Your support is deeply appreciated. Thank you for all that you do to support the arts in your community and the artists who have inspired your life.

YOUR GIFT to the Constance Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts will be directed, in its entirety, to support our Individual Artist Grants and Fellowships. They are not used to offset annual administrative expenses.
