Equity Statement


We are committed to a future where all people, regardless of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, age, religion, ability, or socioeconomic status, are treated justly and fairly.

We embrace truthful expressions of history and creativity to help unlock the full potential of American art. We recognize the ways in which American art has contributed to systemic disparities and injustices and direct the foundation’s resources to address historical inequities through our grantmaking.

We recognize that our commitments to equity require ongoing efforts on our own work culture and entail actions across our staff, board, and programs.
