The Annual Fund helps to cover the expenses of many areas of the Museum such as: electric and fuel charges, care and conservation of our diverse collection, school tours and public programs, as well as the exhibitions our community has enjoyed and been inspired by for the past 95 years.
Join us as we head towards the second century of the Montclair Art Museum with your 100% tax deductible gift to the Annual Fund and feel proud that you have done your part to help keep us strong.
Please be as generous as you can and make your donation today. Every gift makes a difference!

Gifts to the Annual Fund are also a wonderful way to honor or memorialize someone. We will acknowledge your contribution with a note informing the family member or friend you designate. Click here for more information about making a gift in memory or in honor of a loved one.
What is the difference between the Annual Fund and Membership?
When you become a member, you give a gift that gives back to you. In return for your membership dues, you enjoy special benefits and privileges like free admission, discounts at the Museum Store and Art School, discounts on theater and concert tickets, a subscription to Inside MAM, and invitations to private members-only events such as exhibition previews and receptions. A large portion of membership dues is tax-deductible, while all gifts to the Annual Fund are outright, 100% tax-deductible donations that are used solely for the support of day-to-day operations of the Museum.
Matching Gifts
To promote charitable giving, many companies match their employees' gifts to nonprofit organizations. If your company has a matching gift program, your contribution to MAM can be generously increased and will do even more to support the Museum's mission. (If this information is required, please note that the Museum's tax identification number is 22-1487582.)
