Support the Museum

Please consider a gift to support UMCA’s work and permanent
collection. 

Our University Museum of Contemporary Art and its permanent
collection play a vital role in educating our students. UMass (and Five College) students from
across various disciplines of study use the collection as a resource for building analytical skills in
their fields, a catalyst for conversation around current social issues, and building community. 
As we celebrate the 60th anniversary of this vital visual arts resource, we ask that
you make a gift in support of the UMCA’s permanent collection. 

With your investment, you help UMCA build and diversify its collection with more works by
artists of color and women artists; ensure UMCA continues as our teaching museum; and help it
become even more fully integrated into the fabric of our entire academic and local artistic
communities.
Thank you!
