Encouraging Those Who Enrich Us All

We are one of the leading supporters of the arts in the world because we believe that a thriving arts and culture sector benefits economies and societies. Our program is designed to engage people in creative ways to build mutual respect and understanding. We do this through grants and sponsorships to arts organizations, and through our own innovative programs, Art Conservation Project, Art in Our Communities® and Museums on Us®.

Art Conservation Project

Works of art can provide a lasting reflection of peoples and cultures. But, over time, they are subject to deterioration. This unique program provides grants to nonprofit institutions to conserve works that are significant to the cultural heritage of a country or region, or important to the history of art. learn More about Art Conservation Project

Our conservation program helps preserve art worldwide.

Art in our Communities®

We have converted our corporate art collection into a unique community resource from which museums and nonprofit galleries may borrow complete or customized exhibitions at no cost. By providing these exhibitions, we promote community engagement and help generate vital revenue for regional cultural venues. learn More about Art in our Communities®

We loan our art collection to museums and nonprofit galleries.
