The Oakville Galleries Fund was created to provide support for contemporary art exhibitions, artists, and education programming at Oakville Galleries. This fund is also where we will be launching our Capital Campaign for the Future Museum. More information to come!
Oakville Galleries is an approved beneficiary of the Council for Canadian American Relations (CCAR), a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) public charity. This means that U.S. donors can make tax-deductible contributions to CCAR and recommend that their gift support our work. While CCAR retains full discretion over the use of donated funds—as required by U.S. tax law—it welcomes non-binding suggestions from donors and regularly considers such recommendations in its grantmaking decisions. To make a donation or for more information, please visit ccar-nyc.org or contact info@ccar-nyc.org. We are deeply grateful for your support!
