WMA ANNUAL FUND
Help to conserve and present the collection for ours and future generations by providing a gift over and above your membership. Tributes and gifts in the honor or memory of someone special also help to build this important fund.

Continue the legacy of loved ones through tribute gifts to WMA.  Your gift ensures that future generations will enjoy the Arts.  Mark a special anniversary or milestone in life with a tribute gift.  Remember loved ones through naming opportunities, such as purchases of art. 

Upon receipt of your gift, WMA will notify your special person or their family with a card, which describes the dedication.  Tribute gifts are also recognized in the WMA Biennial Report.  All donations are tax deductible as allowed by law.

Docents
Year round Docents provide Museum tours to visitors and school children. They aide the educational outreach to students, visitors, and the Wiregrass community. Docent volunteers undergo a training period that focuses on the Museum's permanent collection, special exhibitions and outreach lessons.   Docents agree to serve for at least one year as gallery educators following their training.

Kennington Committee
Named after artist Dale Kennington, this group of ladies supports fundraising efforts through various avenues including Upscale Resale, a high-end consignment sale,  and Yard Party for Art, our annual Rockin' Fundraiser.

Special Projects Volunteers
Special Projects Volunteers support the Museum through their contributions as an individual apart from a group. They assist with Museum events and lectures, help with special family programs, assist with  mailings and computer data entry and work within Museum departments.

Special Projects Volunteers must be 16 years and older and fill out a form that lets us know their areas of interest and the amount of time they are willing to contribute. They are contacted as opportunities in their area of interest develop because of immediate Museum needs.
