The Annual Fund
What is essential at every art museum? Lights! When you donate to The Annual Fund—helping The Aldrich to keep the lights on—you will be invited to LIGHTS OUT! This after-dark tour of Bike Rides: The Exhibition will be illuminated only by flashlights and led by director Harry Philbrick. Scheduled for 5 pm on Sunday, December 13, LIGHTS OUT! is a unique, complimentary event strictly for contributors to The Annual Fund.
Your gift makes a difference; since January 2009 support of The Annual Fund has enabled 6,714 young people to learn from our education programs, 5,629 visitors to view our exhibitions, and 1,388 participants to engage with our stimulating adult programming.
Donations to The Annual Fund provide a major source of funding for The Aldrich. We hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity to support an important community treasure—your contribution is essential if The Aldrich is to remain a leader in the exhibition of contemporary art and provision of related education programs for adults, children, and families.
LIGHTS OUT! promises to be a fun way to view a thought-provoking exhibition. But we hope that our guests will pause a moment to think just how important the kind of general operating support that pays for utilities is to the Museum. Your donation will help The Aldrich to continue to fulfill its mission, enhancing the quality of our lives and our community through extraordinary exhibition and education programs.
The Aldrich is always thinking of new ways to look. look again. LIGHTS OUT! is the perfect opportunity for the whole family to experience a new way to view an exhibition. LIGHTS OUT! is a complimentary event just for those who contribute—in any amount—to The Annual Fund.
Make an online donation or mail your donation by check, payable to The Aldrich.
