Annual Fund

Maintaining the college's 137-year-old tradition of offering equal access to education requires keeping tuition affordable for those in need. Currently, 79% of students receive some form of financial aid, with the average first-year package around $10,000. That's why the MassArt Fund is so important. Through this annual fundraising program we're able to offset these costs by providing scholarships and other financial assistance to our students.

The annual fund also supports several academic programs and resources critical to our mission, including the Writing Center, the Center for Art & Community Partnerships, the Global Education Fund, and the Morton R. Godine Library. Given cutbacks in state funding, now only 25% of our annual budget, there's a greater need than ever before to keep these worthy initiatives strong and viable.

That's why we need your help. This campaign will increase annual contributions to the MassArt Fund from $1.5 million to $2 million in just two years - which will allow us to continue offering a truly accessible, exceptional art and design education to students from all walks of life.
