Fall Fund Drive 2024

We are proud to have become such an important part of the community, and we have you to thank for creating and sustaining this arts center. Now through December 31, 2024, every dollar you donate will be matched by our loyal benefactor, Rick Engel, up to $15,000!

We invite you to join Rick and donate in support of the future goals as well as the past accomplishments of West Windsor Arts. Some of these include:

  • Regularly injecting art and creativity into local initiatives like the Farmers Market and this year’s Bike Fest
  • Nurturing the artist inside everyone through education as well as exhibition opportunities
  • Developing innovative programs with community partners like Arts & Health Mercer to celebrate November as Arts & Health Month in New Jersey

Our artists, students, board and staff join us in thanking you for your generous commitment to West Windsor Arts. We can’t do this without you.

Honoring Eduardo Garcia

We are deeply saddened to share that Eduardo Garcia, West Windsor Arts’ first Executive Director passed on April 20. Throughout his career, Eduardo dedicated himself to the arts community, and served several organizations as executive director and represented our region for the National Endowment for the Arts. “Eduardo played an instrumental role in making the community’s dream of a center for the arts in West Windsor a reality,” says Aylin Green, Executive Director of West Windsor Arts. “This community resource would not be where we are today without Eduardo’s early efforts and guidance.”

Donate to the Priscilla Snow Algava Scholarship Fund

On April 23, 2019 Priscilla passed away at home surrounded by loved ones. We are deeply honored to have worked with Priscilla and benefited from her generous spirit. Her daughters, Alisa and Carin Algava wrote a beautiful obituary that truly captures her “see-beauty-everywhere light and love.”

Support support Priscilla taught us the joy that comes from creating and sharing through her encouraging and supportive spirit. We marveled at how painting remained a meditative and healing practice as she battled cancer. Through this initiative, we are able to perpetuate her legacy by launching the Priscilla Snow Algava Scholarship Fund to enable people of all ages who wish to pursue art classes at West Windsor Arts to do so despite any financial obstacles. The Priscilla Snow Algava Fund was established by former student Sherri Andrews. Please make a tax-deductible donation today!

 

Donate to our Youth Scholarship Program

Support supportIt’s no secret that children come alive when they work in the arts. Imaginations spark and developing minds thrive. In fact, studies show that high engagement in the arts leads to increased academic achievement, better attendance in school, increased motivation, and higher levels of community engagement.

We choose applicants based on financial need, interest in arts participation, and willingness to contribute toward their child’s success in the program. Many children are referred to us by family members, teachers, or social workers. Please help us continue this valuable program by donating today!
