Ways to Support

Ways to Support

We invite you to explore the many ways to donate to Kawartha Art Gallery. With a donation of $25 or more annually, you will receive donor benefits based on the level at which you donate.

Support Our New Gallery Space

We are looking to add more names to our Donor Wall to assist with contributions for the Kawartha Art Gallery’s new space at 19 Cambridge.

Many of those already familiar with the Gallery, as well as new supporters, have generously contributed to sharing the vision for what will be the Gallery’s new arts and cultural space for our community. With your donation to our Donor Wall, we will be able to provide our community with the exceptional cultural experience it deserves!

The new space will provide versatility for programming, exhibition and permanent collection storage for the Gallery.

To contribute please reach out to Susan.

Donate to the Ken Found Art Fund

Ken Found exhibited a robust commitment to championing local artists, demonstrated through his  acquisitions from the Kawartha Art Gallery, the only public art gallery in the City of Kawartha Lakes. As a testament to this commitment, not only was Ken Found's art collection generously donated to the Kawartha Art Gallery, but also the creation of the Ken Found Art Fund held with the Community Foundation of Kawartha Lakes.

This fund is dedicated to assist in acquiring artworks by local artists and hosting events to enhance the visibility of Kawartha Art Gallery.
