Donate

At MISSA we rely on the help of our passionate and dedicated volunteers, donors and sponsors. Please consider making a donation to MISSA to assist us in the delivery of our annual summer school which has been enriching the region’s cultural landscape since 1984.

Donations of all denominations make a huge difference to the fiscal sustainability of MISSA. Thank you for considering this model of direct support of our charitable work in arts education.

Friends of MISSA and summer students participate in financially supporting MISSA too. Every year students donate handmade mugs which are sold to directly raise money for the ceramics program. Gumbo night is a popular ceramics fundraiser with donated bowls used to enjoy a hot dish of gumbo where attendees get to take home their bowl! Visiting MISSA faculty donate a piece of art for the final event of the MISSA summer, the much anticipated Silent Auction. MISSA is grateful for the generous support from its student, Friends and faculty.

Please click here if you would like to make a donation. You will be automatically issued a charity tax receipt.
