CAA News Today

CAA needs your help to advance the programs and support we provide to the individuals and institutions that comprise the world’s largest international professional community in the visual arts. Bringing innovative new ideas and meaningful experiences to artists, designers, crafters, curators, art historians, critics, students and faculty members is always on the forefront of our minds, but we cannot do it alone.

We have over 9,000 members, but did you know that approximately half of our members are artists, students, retirees, and part-time faculty, who have subsidized memberships and conference registrations?

These members, and all members, have full access to CAA programs such as:

• Professional Development Fellowships and Publishing Grants
• Awards of Distinction
• Professional Development Podcasts
• Online Career Center
• Advocacy, Fair Use, and Standards & Guidelines
• Resources for Academic Art Museum Professionals (RAAMP)

We advocate and design programs for all our members, regardless of how much they pay in membership, and we hope that as in all strong communities, those that can help will.

A donation to the Annual Fund allows CAA to provide the much-needed support for the field at the individual level and to institutions. A contribution gives CAA more power to advocate and serve the ever-changing needs of our members.

Our Travel Fund assists ten students and scholars from across the country and around the world to attend the Annual Conference each year, but gifts directed towards this category will increase that number exponentially.

A contribution to the Publication Fund helps offset the cost to produce the print and online scholarly publications of The Art Bulletin, Art Journal, Art Journal Open, and caa.reviews.

Please consider a tax-deductible donation in either fund category that will help us better serve the visual arts community. No matter what fund category you choose, your support will go a long way in making a difference.

On behalf of the Board of Directors and staff of CAA, I thank you for your generosity.

Best regards,

Hunter O’Hanian
Executive Director and CEO
