"I can't put into words what that opportunity meant to him and to us."

Make an impact. Contribute to art education:

"When my father-in-law read in the paper about SAMA’s upcoming Plein Air Paint Out, I thought it was a great opportunity for Frankie to spend a few days doing what he loves! The experiences he has gained are unforgettable. He met incredible artists who offered him encouragement and shared their experiences and techniques. I hope you can find it in your hearts and budget to support our local art programs. With this funding SAMA can provide a classroom with a variety of programs that serve families and youth in our neighborhood. Help add color to the world!" - Pam Orzehowski

Support YOUR Museum

Your gift to the annual giving campaign touches every aspect of museum operations and allows SAMA to continue to showcase celebrated American art for the people of the southwestern area of central Pennsylvania. Thoughtful donations by members and patrons help us fund innovative Arts-in-Education programs across five museums in Altoona, Bedford, Johnstown, Ligonier, and Loretto.

This significant and impactful exchange of giving and receiving among passionate and caring people is more important now than ever. Thank you for your support!
