Dear Friends,


In 1962, a group of citizens bound by their common love of art came together to start St. John’s Museum of Art. Without regular city, state, or federal funding, the community created an art museum that has lasted for 61 years and is now one of the most respected art museums in the state.


This year CAM presented 10 exhibitions, 75 public programs, 60 youth programs, 208 classes, 300 school tours, and 100 public tours. We created jobs for artists in the Museum School and through public programs. CAM paid artists a total of $244,000, underscoring the museum’s role as a driver of the creative economy in the region.


Over six decades much has changed, but the community’s passion for and commitment to visual art has not. Through exhibitions like Love, Place of Encounters/Lugar de Encuentros, and Monumentand multidisciplinary public programs like Jazz@CAM, the Sunset Performance Series, gallery talks, artist lectures, panel discussions, and more, we explore, celebrate, and reflect how art has the power to bring people together. Thanks to your support, CAM is a convergence of art, culture, and community, that enlivens and engages our region.


Please consider your level of support as we round out this year so that we can continue our work, to give back to the community we serve.


As a supporter of CAM, you understand the power of the arts. We hope that you will choose to make CAM a part of your year-end giving.


Your gift to CAM’s Year-End Giving Campaign will help the museum to continue to serve our community through high-quality exhibitions, engaging programs, and meaningful outreach. Your gift translates directly to our work:

$5,000 will help fund an exhibition

$2,500 will fund outreach art projects to vulnerable communities

$1,000 will fund transportation for students for a community day

$500 will provide free admission for 50 for field trips

$250 will provide a scholarship to a student in need

Create a lasting impact on our community when you join us during this season of giving by making a gift to support CAM and the work we do here, providing high-quality art opportunities to all.


Happy Holidays!

With gratitude,

Heather Wilson

CAM Executive Director
