Grassroots Art Center

Endowment

The Grassroots Art Center, Lucas Arts and Humanities Council, Inc., (LAHC) embarked on a mission to establish a permanent endowment fund to ensure the future growth of the arts in Lucas. A very generous Lucas area couple began the endowment with a gift of $2,000 in 2007. The Board of Directors determined that the interest from this fund is to be used to assist LAHC with exhibitions, education, preservation and documentation of Midwest grassroots, visionary art environments, to purchase self-taught art for the permanent collection and for capital improvements.

Endowment gifts may be designated to support specific programs and activities, may be unrestricted to support the areas of greatest needs or given "In memory of….." or "In honor of……" a family member or friend. Also gifts of stocks, bonds and or land may be given to the endowment.

Checks should be made payable to the Lucas Arts and Humanities Council, Inc. and specify Endowment Fund. Additional information about the endowment can be obtained by writing, emailing grassroots@wtciweb.com or calling the staff at 785-525-6118. Thank you to all persons who have already invested in the future of the art center.
