Museums Matter Because...
ART INSPIRES CULTURE CONNECTS SCIENCE DISCOVERS HISTORY EDUCATES
As our world continues to change, the Museum is a place that gives perspective across history, culture, science and art. To visit the Museum is to understand that everything is connected; past, present and future.
Yes, the Museum receives the majority of funding through the state budget BUT, as you can imagine, there is no "extras" included in that budget. The Foundation, through corporate donations, and individual gifts, is able to ensure that those "extras" receive the necessary funding.
The Foundation's mission is to support the collections, exhibitions and programs of the New Jersey State Museum through advocacy, fundraising, promotion and volunteerism.
This year, as you plan your 2024 year end of donations, please consider giving to the Foundation and the work we do to support the Museum!
When you make a gift, you acknowledge the importance of the Museum to the more than 150,000 visitors to our galleries, classrooms, planetarium and virtual platforms each year.
Please make a gift so others can experience the wonder of learning at the New Jersey State Museum. All donations are tax-deductible per IRS regulations.
