The Tomie dePaola Art Education Fund

In honor of a treasured New Hampshire artist, the Currier Museum of Art has created a fund to support art education for young people. Tomie had a great affinity for bringing art to children of all backgrounds, a mission shared by the Currier Museum Art Center. The Currier Museum has proudly exhibited Tomie’s work, and this fund will be a sustainable memorial to the artist.Your gift will support this fund to provide children and teens from economically challenged circumstances with cost-free art classes, vacation art camps, and school tours at the Currier Museum. For many of these students, this focused attention to viewing art and artmaking builds their confidence, improves their visual literacy skills, and amplifies their emotional well-being, in the classroom and beyond.
