PAAM’s Adopt An Artwork program seeks to preserve and restore permanent collection works so that they may be enjoyed by the general public as much as possible.

Some works in the collection are in dire need of restoration or repair in order to preserve the piece’s life and value to the public. A variety of calamities may have affected the pieces: age, improper storage or display, or damage from fire or flood.

Donations to this program directly underwrite PAAM collection restoration efforts. You can choose to donate to the General Restoration Fund, which goes toward restoration of works of PAAM’s choosing, or, you can donate the full cost to have a particular piece brought back to its former glory. If you choose the latter, you will receive before-and-after images once the restoration is complete, and you will be credited on the piece’s exhibition label for all future showings. All donations to the Adopt an Artwork program are 100% tax deductible.
