Donate to the Centers for the Arts
We're proud of our inspiring 63-year history serving Bonita Springs and surrounding communities. Our artist, educator founders, blessed with a pioneer spirit, stood behind their idea of 'Arts for All' and built a community of artists, educators and supporters of the arts.
Together, these past few years, we've all made tough choices to ensure the health and well-being of our community. The Centers, as a not-for-profit arts organization, relies on a combination of education program fees, performance ticket sales and donations. While recovering from both a multi-year pandemic and a hurricane, we've been busy rescheduling and booking new shows, and planning amazing arts education offerings for all of you. Our donors are key to helping us get through these tough times as well as continuing to offer arts education to local children who, without us, would not share, enjoy or learn from the arts. We need your help to cross this bridge together. Please consider making a donation today.
Don't forget, your gifts are tax deductible! We'll provide a donation receipt for your taxes. We welcome gifts of cash, securities, or other negotiable instruments. For instructions on stock transfer, please contact us at 239-495-8989.
