Madison Art Guild Gives Back

The Madison Art Guild has been a non-profit organization since 2005. To fulfill the obligations as a 501(c)(3) organization, MAG has carried out some rewarding community projects over the years including providing art equipment for the homeless/daycare children at the Salvation Army Center and for Agrace HospiceCare patients. In 2021 due to our inability to do activities in person we held a Virtual Show and Fundraiser with a percentage of the sales going to a chosen charity. In 2022, we hosted a Virtual Show with a percentage of sales going to Little Picassos an art enrichment program in Madison for low-income students. Our charitable recipient for 2023 is Arts for All Wisconsin.

Arts for All Wisconsin

This year, a percentage of proceeds from the auction will go to Arts for All Wisconsin, an organization whose mission is “To expand the capabilities, confidence, and quality of life for children and adults with disabilities by providing programs in dance, drama, creative writing, music, and visual art.” More information about Arts for All can be found on their website, artsforallwi.org.

We hope you will join us in raising money for this wonderful program.
