All gifts to Ragdale advance artistic careers and help to generate new creative works.
When you support Ragdale, you join a special group of arts-minded philanthropists and community leaders who engage with and nurture the artists of our time. Your gifts help us host each artist with great care, providing the time, space and resources needed for them to make groundbreaking leaps in the development of new works. Your support also goes towards much-needed arts education in our regional schools.
