The Hockaday Museum's Annual Fund
While Membership contributions support essential daily Museum operations, gifts to the Annual Fund make our outstanding exhibitions, programs, community art events and school outreach services possible. Art touches our lives everyday, immortalizing the past, illuminating the present, and carrying our stories into the future. Please join us in our mission to preserve the art and culture of  Montana and Glacier National Park. Your contributions help us perpetuate the priceless art legacy of this splendid region. It is ours to share - and to support!

Art Education Sponsorship
“Museums serving as Educators” is our daily practice. The Hockaday’s commitment to enrich the cultural life of the community is reflected in our school outreach services.  Art is a powerful vehicle for teaching children to think creatively, express themselves with confidence, and to respect and value differences. Your donation of $500 or more sponsors school tours, free Student Days, the Annual Children’s Art Show and New Artists Show, and the Traveling Medicine Show.
