DONATIONS KEEP THE LIGHTS ON
Hi! I’m Kristi St. Laurent, President at Andres Institute of Art. We need your help more than ever to fund our park so we can stay open for free!
Arts and Cultural funding cuts and reduced non-profit charity donations are hurting the ability to keep the park and art gallery open for free. Please consider making a donation in one of the many donation posts or bins around the park.
