Artspace 2025 Annual Giving Fund

Artspace 2025 Annual Giving Fund image

This year, Artspace reaffirmed its mission to be a powerful hub for community connection and artistic discovery. 2025 was a year of extraordinary momentum, driven by the powerful discovery, stories told within our gallery walls and the vibrant, accessible programs we offered throughout the community.

We were proud to kick off our season with the acclaimed juried exhibition, "It's About the Hustle: Black Americans & Labor"; which showcased compelling works from underrepresented artists across the country. This effort, alongside collaborations with other non-profits like the exhibition “Sunup to Sundown: Work Never Stops” with the Richmond Black History Museum and Cultural Center, proved that art is the essential medium for understanding our shared history and celebrating diverse voices.

We want to keep this momentum growing. As we look ahead to 2026, our goal is simple: to ensure the arts remain vibrant, dynamic, and accessible for every single member of our community, regardless of income or ability.

Will you help us continue this vital work?
