Visionaries
FOR-SITE’s Visionaries are a small group of strategic and creative partners committed to helping the FOR-SITE Foundation establish itself as a more permanent arts organization in the Bay Area. Visionaries understand the profound impact that a small and nimble organization can have.
The collective contributions of Visionaries underwrite FOR-SITE’s modest annual operating budget so that FOR-SITE can fund exhibition research and development and sustain brand awareness, a donor base, and a core staff between projects.
In exchange for their deep commitment, Visionaries enjoy an intimate relationship with FOR-SITE in which they are among the first to hear about new projects as they evolve, meet FOR-SITE artists and collaborators, and experience new installations.
Visionaries support FOR-SITE at the $20,000 level or above each year with a commitment of three years. Visionaries will also be asked to support exhibition projects with leadership gifts.
If you are interested in learning more about Visionaries please contact Miegan Riddle at miegan@for-site.org or call 415.362.9330.
