Palate to Palette Fall Fundraiser

The Lyme Art Association has been a vibrant part of Old Lyme’s cultural life for over 100 years. Located in our beautiful 1921 gallery building, we present world-class exhibitions, offer art education programs, and host events that connect artists and community members from throughout Connecticut.

We invite you to support this creative spirit by becoming a sponsor!

Your sponsorship helps us:

  • Showcase more than 2,000 artworks each year
  • Recognize artistic excellence through juried awards
  • Provide programs for families and young artists

Whether you sponsor an artist award, family event, or exhibition, your support will be recognized in gallery signage, social media, email newsletters, and community publications like Ink Magazine and Old Lyme Neighbors.

Here are a few options:

  • Exhibition Sponsorships: Presenting $2,500, Supporting $1,500, Contributing $750
  • Artist Awards: First Place $500, Second $250, Third $125
  • Educational Programs: Young Artists Exhibition $500, Family Day $300

We’d love to work with you to create a sponsorship package that fits your goals and budget.

Let’s talk! Give us a call at (860) 434-7802 or email Executive Director Elsbeth Dowd. Or stop by the gallery for a tour—we’d be happy to show you around.

Thank you for helping us keep the arts thriving in southeastern Connecticut.
