Your Benefits
The Artful Legacy Patrons' Book will be housed prominently, publicly and permanently in each of our museums. When you make a pledge or gift your name and/or that of your honoree will be added to it, unless you want your gift to be anonymous.
Made during your lifetime or given at your death to support our mission and ensure that SAMA will remain a vibrant source of inspiration for generations to come. All gifts are tax deductible.
The Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art does not provide any legal, accounting or financial advice. We recommend that you obtain professional advice for ‘planned gifts’ from your attorney, accountant and financial advisor.
The Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art is financed in part by a grant from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Community and Economic Development. It is a public museum, publicly supported and a tax-exempt non-profit organization under the laws.
