Consider giving your beloved artworks as a donation to Glacier Art Museum ‘s growing permanent collection  to care for and ensure future generations can experience and treasure important works of art. Over the last 55 years, Glacier Art Museum has grown our permanent collection to over 2,500 original artworks and historic artifacts from acclaimed regional and international artists. 

We have a Collections Committee that reviews and votes on all donations before acceptance into the collection.  Gifts of art are considered tax deductible charitable donations and are fully deductible at the fair market value when you donate to a 501 C 3 charitable arts organization. Works can also be donated as unrestricted gifts for future museum fundraiser sales to help support Glacier Art Museum programs, upon approval by the Executive Director and  Collections Committee.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Our policies and procedures regarding in-kind and artwork donations are much different than a thrift store or other charity. Potential artwork donations cannot be dropped off without a scheduled appointment with the Executive Director for review, and once in the temporary custody of the museum , final acceptance of artwork goes through a formal committee review and vote. Front desk staff cannot evaluate or receive any in-kind or artwork donation without Executive Director present, or unless prior written approval and authorization from the Director has been received. You will be asked to make an appointment and cannot leave the art at the museum.

For more information on donating work and to schedule an appointment with the Director, please contact info@glacierartmuseum.org or 406.755.5268 x222.
