What is the difference between membership and gifts to the annual operating fund?
A. Membership is a benefit-based program that encourages individuals to become active in the life of the NBMAA. Memberships at the Artist’s Circle and above are only partially tax-deductible. Gifts to the Annual Operating Fund, are straight out philanthropic supporting-based gifts, 100% tax deductible. Both programs however support the NBMAA’s bottom line and many individuals participate in both.
