It’s more than an Antiques Show…
Proceeds from Antiques Show Preview Party tickets, advance donor support, advertising, and corporate sponsorships help us provide much needed educational assistance to K-12 schools in Salem and beyond during a time of severe cutbacks in school budgets.

$125 = subsidizes museum admission for 25 students from under-resourced schools to encourage critical thinking and cultural expression through art

$250 = covers the cost of a teacher to attend a professional development training in order to learn how the museum can support his/her classroom teaching

$500 = 150 children can participate in free storytime programs at the museum

$1,000 = provides buses so that 250 students can experience learning in our galleries

$2,500 = covers admission, supply, and transportations fees for a classroom of students to take part in the Multiple Visit Partnership Program and visit the museum up to 5 times during the school year

$5,000 = funds art supplies and curricular materials to inspire creativity in 18,000 students each year

$10,000 = provides for free, hand-on activities every Saturday and Sunday for over 5,000 children and families

Special thanks also go to the 37th Annual Antiques Show Committee, chaired by Elise Wolcott.
