What Will Your Legacy Leave Behind?

A story. A work of art. A moment of discovery. A connection to the past. A spark of curiosity in a young mind. These are the things that become a community’s legacy.

 

This DAF Day, October 8, you can help shape that legacy by recommending a grant from your Donor-Advised Fund to the Neville Public Museum Foundation.

 

Your generosity helps support the preservation of our region’s art, history, culture, and stories while creating opportunities for people of all ages to learn, explore, and be inspired.

Give today. Inspire tomorrow. A gift from your DAF can help ensure that:

- Art continues to inspire.

- History continues to teach.

- Culture continues to connect us.

- Education continues to open doors.

- Our community’s stories continue to be told.

 

And your impact doesn’t have to end today. Consider naming the Neville Public Museum Foundation as a beneficiary of your DAF, creating a legacy that can support art, culture, education, and discovery for generations to come.

Your legacy is more than what you leave behind. It’s what you help make possible for those who come next.

 

Make a DAF gift this October 8.

81st Art Annual

Now Open!

The 81st Art Annual exhibit is an all-media, juried exhibition of current artworks produced by artists living in the counties of Northeastern Wisconsin and Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.  


This juried art exhibition began in 1942 during the height of World War II. For over three-quarters of a century, many of this region’s most celebrated and talented artists have exhibited their work as part of this Green Bay tradition. 


The Commonwealth of New Island

Now Open!

Artist and mapmaker Lee Mothes has created an imaginary island-nation situated 950 miles off the west coast of Australia, in the Indian Ocean. The Commonwealth of New Island is an evolving collection of maps, coins, a flag, deeds images of the island, and a written background of the island’s history, culture, geography, wildlife and climate.

 

Real people are beginning to make New Island a place of their own. Travelers who find their way here can claim land, and then build their dream home. Lee creates a deed and plat map of their site, and if desired, a painting of their new home on the island. Actual people from Wisconsin, California and Tasmania have built vineyards, beach houses and most recently, a Frank Lloyd Wright style house in the Sheffield Desert.
