Membership

"Building Membership for the Advancement of the Arts"

The support from the Foundation's annual members is the essence, which sustains the cultural events and educational programs the Foundation presents to the community.  Various membership levels are available for patrons and businesses.  "Partners in the Arts" represent the Foundation's business sponsors to help underwrite annual cultural events and educational programs.  Collectively, these corporate sponsors contribute a major source of income toward the annual budget.  As a qualified 501-C3 not-for-profit corporation, the Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation relies on a combination of funding from annual membership dues, corporate sponsorships, memorial donations, ticket sales, event income, grants, stock transfers and special gifts.  Below you will find a list explaining our membership benefit levels.
