Supporting collaborative artwork initiated by sculptor Prune Nourry to raise awareness and empower underrepresented communities. 

Catharsis Arts Foundation is a non-profit initiated by the sculptor Prune Nourry that supports collaborative artistic creation and enables art to have a long term, positive impact on the women, artists, artisans, and communities who contribute to and inspire the artwork’s creation.

The Foundation encourages the making of artworks with and by underrepresented communities, enabling them to tell their stories. The collective art installations then tour around the world to raise awareness before returning to their country of origin and funding their preservation, as well as educational and artistic programs for the local communities.

The foundation is inspired by Prune Nourry’s profound belief that art and sculpture can be a tool to recreate balance in a deeply unbalanced world. It will operate globally, with first programs being held in Africa in 2024.

AFMM raises awareness among Americans and provides financial support, on a tax-deductible basis, for the Musée de Montmartre.

HistoryThe Musée de Montmartre is located in old houses on the Butte (hill of Montmartre). These residences, surrounded by gardens, housed the workshops and ateliers of numerous artists such as Auguste Renoir, Émile Bernard, Raoul Dufy, Charles Camoin, Suzanne Valadon and Maurice Utrillo. The permanent collection includes paintings, posters and drawings signed by Toulouse-Lautrec, Modigliani, Kupka, Steinlen, Valadon, and Utrillo. Together, the artworks recount the history of Montmartre, including the innovative studios at Bateau-Lavoir and 12 rue Cortot and the infamous animated cabarets of the Lapin Agile and the Moulin Rouge. The Museum includes an entire room dedicated to the French Cancan, while another features rare zinc plates of dreamlike scenes from shadow theatre such as Le Chat Noir, the first modern cabaret founded by Rodolphe Salis in 1881.  The collection was made possible by the History and Archeology Society “Le Vieux Montmartre,” which itself dates back to 1886.  The permanent collection presented will immerse you in the history of Montmartre and reveal its rich culture. The Musée de Montmartre was founded in 1960 and dates one of its buildings to the seventeenth century.  This building is the Bel Air House and is the oldest building in Montmartre.  During its heyday, 12 rue Cortot served as a residence and meeting place for many artists including Auguste Renoir, Suzanne Valadon and Émile Bernard, who held their studios here, as well as the fauve artists Emile Othon Friesz and Raoul Dufy.The Musée's attendees relive Montmartre's celebrated history through the eyes of Suzanne Valadon during the Musée's immersive media show. Attendees rediscover the atmosphere that dominated the winding streets of the Butte and the famous names that roamed them.  Valadon's humble origins, artistic training, contacts and success make her the perfect guide to introduce the visit and recount the history of Montmartre: she is an allegory of the Butte during its effervescence.  In July 2011, the Kléber-Rossillon Company took over the management of the Musée de Montmartre. It launched an ambitious program that expanded and restored the site. Exhibition space was doubled, the studio-apartment of the artists Suzanne Valadon and Maurice Utrillo was renovated, and the three gardens that inspired Renoir’s paintings were brought to their former glory.  Artists started to move to Montmartre in 1870 and the cafes and cabarets multiplied in the 1880’s. What quickly came to characterize Montmartre in the eyes of everyone was this effervescent bohemian spirit, a creative energy.  In 1912 Suzanne Valadon, Maurice Utrillo and André Utter settled into their atelier-apartment and left a symbolic trace at 12 Cortot. The spirit of the infernal trio has been restored: the frying pan can be found in its place, the mezzanine was rebuilt in the studio, and the walls of Utrillo’s bedroom still have their original panelling and barbed wire on the windows.  To give life to this reconstruction, the company Kléber Rossillon called upon the designer Hubert Le Gall, scenographer who has worked with renowned institutions (e.g., Musée d'Orsay, Musée de l'Orangerie, Jacquemart- André). Hubert Le Gall was able to recreate the atelier-apartment, faithful to the letters and writings of the time and as portrayed in historical photographs - an ode and celebration of the past.Three gardens dedicated to Auguste Renoir surround the Musée de Montmartre. They are named in memory of the impressionist painter who lived on-site between 1875 and 1877, where he painted several masterpieces including the famous le Bal du Moulin de la Galette (“The Moulin de la Galette Ball”), La Balancoire (“The Swing”), and Jardin de la rue Cortot (“Rue Cortot Garden”). The Renoir Gardens offer breathtaking views of the vineyard, the Clos Montmartre, and northern cityscape of Paris.  The Musée de Montmartre captures the excitement of a time at the turn of the century (the Fin de Siècle) in a neighborhood where artists, musicians, poets, and friends gathered and created.  This time gave birth to modern art, pushing against the boundaries of the time.  The Musée de Montmartre is rooted in history.  The American Friends of Musée de Montmartre celebrate this time and very special place.

Support the preservation of the world’s most endangered modern houses of unique architectural importance.

Iconic Houses provides a worldwide platform for architecturally significant modern houses and artists' homes and studios from the 20th century that are open to the public, by sharing best practices about the conservation, policy, programming and management of house museums and significant private houses. Member sites include Antoni Gaudí's La Pedrera (Spain), Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye (France), and Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater (USA), among almost 200 other masterpieces and hidden gems around the world. At this time over 50 of the world's most iconic modern houses, especially those from the second half of 20th century, are threatened due a lack of legal protection, deferred maintenance or other issues associated with development pressures. We need to act now, or risk losing them forever. What can be done to save them? Icons at Risk sets out to answer that question.  "Icons at Risk" is an international initiative by the Iconic Houses network to preserve the world's most endangered modern houses of unique architectural importance. We will achieve this by raising public awareness, advocacy, and supporting homeowners to take action themselves through a "Toolkit for Owners of Modern Homes".  We thank you in advance for your support!

Collecting, preserving, interpreting, and exhibiting American art, and its collection—arguably the finest holdings of twentieth-century American art in the world—is the Museum's key resource

Innovation has been a hallmark of the Whitney since its beginnings. It was the first museum dedicated to the work of living American artists and the first New York museum to present a major exhibition of a video artist (Nam June Paik, in 1982). Such important figures as Jasper Johns, Jay DeFeo, Glenn Ligon, Cindy Sherman, and Paul Thek were given their first comprehensive museum surveys at the Whitney. The Museum has consistently purchased works within the year they were created, often well before the artists who created them became broadly recognized.

Designed by architect Renzo Piano and situated between the High Line and the Hudson River, the Whitney's current building vastly increases the Museum’s exhibition and programming space, providing the most expansive view ever of its unsurpassed collection of modern and contemporary American art.

South Florida’s cultural destination to experience Japanese culture, art, gardens, food and more.

Visitors are surprised to discover a century-old connection between Japan and South Florida. It is here that a group of young Japanese farmers created a community intended to revolutionize agriculture in Florida.

In 1904, Jo Sakai, a recent graduate of New York University, returned to his homeland of Miyazu, Japan, to organize a group of pioneering farmers and lead them to what is now northern Boca Raton. With the help of the Model Land Company, a subsidiary of Henry Flagler’s East Coast Railroad, they formed a farming colony they named Yamato, an ancient name for Japan.

Ultimately, the results of their crop experimentation were disappointing and the Yamato Colony fell far short of its goals. By the 1920s the community, which had never grown beyond 30 to 35 individuals, finally surrendered its dream. One by one, the families left for other parts of the United States or returned to Japan.

Memorial, Museum and research centre on Holocaust and Human Rights 


25,490 Jews and 353 Roma were deported from the Dossin barracks on 28 train transports to Auschwitz-Birkenau between 1942 and 1944. Few of them survived the ordeal. Today the old military base is a serene site of reflection and remembrance, a Memorial. In the museum, facing the former barracks, one can immerse oneself in the history of the Holocaust in Belgium. The museum provides testimonies not only of exclusion, discrimination and mass violence, but also of hope and resistance. Reflect on human rights violations, then and now. In the research centre one can find more about the role of the Dossin barracks during the Second World War or about the experiences of a loved one or family member.

MZMF prevents the erasure of African American communities through the responsible practice of public history and heritage tourism.

MZMF serves as a conduit to provide financial and technical support to African American church communities and cemeteries in Mississippi. In addition to providing memorials for Blues musicians without grave markers, we provide historical consulting, research, education, and referrals to descendant communities to prevent the erasure of cultural resources in African American communities. By installing over 25 memorials since 1989, MZMF transforms abandoned cultural resources into international tourist destinations.

In 2021, we re-incorporated MZMF as "The Mt. Zion Memorial Fund for Blues, Music, and Justice," and we won over $100,000 in grant awards from Visit Mississippi, the Hills National Heritage Area, the American Historical Association, the MS Delta National Heritage Area, and the MS Arts Council. In the past year, we have installed memorials for Nathan Beauregard, Jim Jackson, and the St. James Missionary Baptist Church, and we have sponsored the RL Boyce Picnic in Como, MS since 2021.

In 2022, MZMF established the Blues Communities Project, working with church and community leaders in 4 counties to add the names and locations of over 660 cemeteries to our WebAtlas of African American Burial Grounds. Services and activities on the pilot project included informational workshops, invited talks, active discussions, archival research, and the launch of a new Wordpress website, featuring ArcGIS-powered surveys and mapping, digital exhibitions, and an online support portal. 
 
Funding is requested to support MZMF’s general operations. MZMF plans to expand the Blues Communities Project into Leflore, DeSoto, and Noxubee Counties, expanding its coverage to a total of 7 counties. Funding will support the development of informational workshops, conceptualized and designed by people of color to increase local participation, including public lectures on gentrification and the erasure of African American history. The participatory addition of burial grounds to the WebAtlas will allow MZMF to continue its growth, extend its reach into descendant communities, and expand its outreach opportunities.

Help Dutch museums collect the most amazing works of art for everyone to enjoy! 

The Vereniging Rembrandt (Rembrandt Association) is an independent membership-based organization that supports art acquisitions for Dutch museum collections great and small, and with large and small gifts, too. It was founded in 1883 by a small number of art lovers who wanted to help save important works of art for the Netherlands. Today, the Vereniging Rembrandt has over 17.500 members, both domestic and abroad, and has helped acquire well-over two thousand works of art for over 125 museums. Among these acquisitions are true icons of art, such as Johannes Vermeer's "Milkmaid" in the Rijksmuseum, Rembrandt's Self-portrait  in the Mauritshuis, and Henri Matisse's perhaps finest paper cut-out: "La perruche et la sirène" in Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. 

"If I were rich, I would have been an art patron. By being a member of the Vereniging Rembrandt, I feel like I kind of am." - Anonymous (member survey, 2017)

Our Heritage Revisited, Our Future Reimagined​ 

Our Vision Born from the need to re-create platforms to support West Africa's rich heritage and act as a catalyst for a modern-day cultural renaissance, the Museum of West African Art, Edo (MOWAA) is embarking on an endeavor to create a world-class arts, culture, and heritage complex to celebrate, research, and  conserve West African art from antiquity to the modern day. MOWAA will provide infrastructure and programs that facilitate skills development and economic opportunities for creatives and cultural heritage specialists in Nigeria to learn, collaborate, and celebrate West Africa's history while reimagining a vibrant future.  MOWAA envisions a bustling arts and creative district consisting of research labs, galleries, artisan halls, studios, and education and performance spaces. Centered in the ancient kingdom of Benin, MOWAA will be an incubator and platform for West Africa's leading creatives and scholars. Campaign Overview MOWAA has acquired approximately 20 acres of land in the heart of the historic part of Benin City which it is transforming into what will become a thriving Creative District—an intimate campus designed through the collaboration of local and international architects, with platforms for display, interaction, and commerce.   The Creative District is a $40 million campaign, of which $16 million has been raised to develop the first building within the Creative District —  the Pavilion. To realize the remaining investments in the Creative District, MOWAA must secure a further $24 million, which will go towards the following projects: Rainforest Gallery and Traveling Contemporary Exhibition Pavilion Fit Out Art Guesthouse, Residences, and Studios Artisans Hall Programming and Landscaping

Support the development of contemporary art in Mexico  

Patronato de Arte Contemporáneo was established in 2000 by an independent group of professionals of the arts to support curatorial, editorial, educational and theoretical projects that contribute to the development of contemporary art in Mexico. We accomplish our mission through out the programs we design to satisfy the needs of the current context of visual arts in Mexico. Our goal is to benefit our countrys' cultural development in the most complete and extensive possible way. Our main programs are:  - The International Symposium on Contemporary Art Theory (SITAC), it's an international event that brings together leading participants in the practice, theory, and history of art to discuss specific themes. The symposium allows a broader diffusion of the artistic ideas among the public, the students, the artists, and related disciplines.  - PACs Grants: Since 2000, we have supported more than 370 projects through this Program. For each supported project, in addition to the economic grant, it involves entering a network of independent projects, and a legitimization before other foundations and / or artistic institutions. Receiving these grants allows many projects to assume their profession as artists and managers.  - Nodos Program: Its a series of activities designed to encourage the exchange between cultural production of the different regions of the country. The main objective of these initiatives is to facilitate a horizontal, plural and multidisciplinary discussion.  - Patrons Program: Our funds come from individual and corporate patrons. This program is designed to be a manifestation of what is our ideology in PAC: to demonstrate the cultural diversity that exists in Mexico, to offer a place of knowledge and at the same time artistic encounters. In the same way that we support artists, we want to accompany each patron to enrich the conversation and learn from each one.

La Fondation Maeght houses one of the largest collections of modern art in Europe, featuring works by leading 20th century artists

An exceptional place for modern art on the French Riviera.

La Fondation Maeght is France's first art foundation, opened in 1964 in St Paul de Vence in the French Riviera, with one of the most important collections of modern art, with works by Miró, Giacometti, Chagall, Calder and Hepworth as well as temporary exhibitions.

La Fondation Maeght opened thanks to the singular destiny of Aimé and Marguerite Maeght, Europe's leading art publishers and dealers in the post-war era. Since its inception and to this date, La Foundation has organized more than 140 exhibitions of modern and contemporary artists and providing access to art to visitors and scholars alike.

As France's very first independent art institution, La Fondation was modelled on American institutions such as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, the Barnes Collection and the Phillips Collection in the US.

As a non-profit, La Fondation does not receive regular public funding from the French government. This means that the support of individuals and companies is essential for its survival, and for the continuation of its mission to promote arts and culture in the decades to come.

Your support, no matter the value, is hugely appreciated and there are many ways you can get involved.

Protocinema is a cross-cultural art organization that commissions and presents site-aware art around the world.

Our purpose is to support dialogue between cultures on equal footing and create opportunities for listening & expression. By doing so, Protocinema aids the development of relationships both at the mindfully local & globally interconnected levels. Protocinema advocates for empathy, working towards an understanding of difference across regions through its exhibitions, commissions, public programs, publications, and mentorship. Founded in 2011 by Mari Spirito, Protocinema is an ambulant nonprofit 501(c)3, free of ‘brick and mortar.’ Our locations are varied, responding both to global concerns and changing conditions on the ground.

Values:

Quality of Expression: We believe that art and public programs should be derived from a long-term research process, address current social concerns, be sensitive to how these affect our personal or political beliefs, be open to counter positions and authentic discourse. We are interested in the intersections of cognition and perception, the processes by which people come to their belief systems, and how those ideologies in turn affect our societies and well-being.

Inclusivity and Accessibility: We strive for all of our projects to be articulated in a way that is readily accessible across culture, age, field, and background; to be free for all; and presented in multiple languages, as budgets allow.

Integrity: We believe that how something is done is as important as what is done. Whether it is the content of an artwork or its creation and presentation process, we value long-term development of relationships, and the production of considered art, grown over time. We value a “Do less, Better” approach.

Cross Culturalism: Our programs introduce new works to new audiences on an intimate grass-roots level across regions. This requires dedication on the part of both the artist and the Protocinema team on-site, long-term work within local communities where strong relationships and empathy are built. This is also a part of our educational philosophy, where education is gained through experience and exchange.

Rubenshuis is the former home and workshop of the brilliant and versatile artist Peter Paul Rubens.

Rubenshuis Located in the center of Antwerp, the Rubenshuis is the former home and workshop of the brilliant and versatile artist Peter Paul Rubens. He lived in this Italian-style palazzo with his family in the early 1600s. It is also where he painted with his colleagues and assistants – the place where he created many of his paintings. The museum showcases an interesting collection of artworks and shows visitors how the master lived and worked. 

Rubenianum and Centrum Rubenianum The rich artistic tradition of the Southern Netherlands encompasses thousands of famous and lesser-known masters. In order to ensure an enduring appreciation and understanding of their work, research and expertise are essential. This is where the Rubenianum comes in - developing expertise and initiating art-historical research on Flemish art of the 16th and 17th centuries.

For its part, the Centrum Rubenianum was established to produce the complete catalogue of the oeuvre of Peter Paul Rubens, which includes an estimated 2,500 compositions and 10,000 works of art. Called the 'Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard', the catalogue will not only discuss and interpret every painting, every drawing and every sketch by Rubens. It will also list all the prints and tapestries that were produced under his supervision.

Springfield Community Center Inc is a nonprofit organization focused on arts, culture, or humanities. It is based in Union Point, GA. It received its nonprofit status in 2016.

In 1825, when Taliaferro County was formed, our ancestors were here as enslaved people on the Plantations in Georgia Militia District 606, later called Springfield Community. 
After emancipation, our great-great-grandfather, his siblings, cousins, and friends drove seventy miles to Augusta University, later to become Morehouse College, pursuing an education. 
In 1935 the Springfield School board purchased land, secured the plan for a Rosenwald design, and began to build the log cabin school, which opened as a school for Black children and operated as such from 1937 through 1955. 
From 1955 until 1965, it served as a meeting place for the Masons, Odd-Fellows, and other Black organizations in the Community. 
In 1965 a community member, Springfield School graduate, and educator solicited others and trained under the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) Citizen Education Program to prepare Taliaferro County Black citizens to register to vote. They were joined by Summer Community Organization and Political Education (SCOPE) volunteers. 
Mr. Turner and five other educators involved in this activity lost their contracts with the school. Not renewing the contract upset the student, and a protest began. The Springfield School became headquarters for this effort. As the boycott continued, the school building became a Freedom School. 
As the Civil Rights protest ended, Mr. Turner partnered with Randolph Blackwell and others to form Crawfordville Enterprise to create jobs. The textile mill and silk-screening plant would be in the old school building. SCLC secured a larger facility as the textile mill grew, and the old school was used as a Head start and Day Care for the plant workers. 
Taliaferro County (Georgia) has a majority Black population, with the school system being 90 percent black. The county's historical markers and statues honor Alexander H. Stephens, Vice President of the Confederacy. Springfield Community wants to change the biased perception by teaching our history, which is America's History. 
The historical listing, restoration, and preservation of the Springfield Log Cabin School and its development as a community center will impact the larger community by enhancing the tourism industry in Taliaferro County. The School will be marketed as the only log cabin/Rosenwald design school in the county, as a repository of African American history and culture, education, and as a symbol of self-reliance. It is the only Civil Rights Era Freedom School in Georgia. It is anticipated that the interpretative portion of the center will provide an opportunity for students of the county to understand better African American life, educational commitment, and the civil rights struggle. 
The Board of Trustees of the Springfield Community Center, Inc's greatest asset is its commitment to completing this project. This commitment is rooted in the fact that the members were born in the Springfield Community and are descendants of the original trustees or original landowners. They are property owners in the Community, and some attended elementary School at the log cabin school or the Freedom School.
The group has partnered with the County Commissioner, Taliaferro School System, Taliaferro County Historical Society, The Purification Heritage Center, Landmark Preservation, Ethos Preservation, AIA, Attorney John M. Clark, of Clark and Clark, the University of Georgia, and several churches in the county 
The complete restoration project will cost approximately a million dollars and divided into phases. 
Phase l
Structural Stabilization and repair (piers, framing, etc.)
Building envelops restoration (log cladding, roofing, flashing, temporary window and door protection, etc.)
Phase II
Window restoration
Exterior door restoration 
Removals of non-historic and non-contributing interior materials
Interior-framing and MEP rough-in
Phase III
Interior door and window restoration 
Interior wall and ceiling cladding restoration
Interior floor restoration 
Interior finishes 
MEP trim-out
Landscaping and hardscaping
Phase 1 of the overall rehabilitation of the Springfield Log School consists of two main components. First, enhancements need to be made to stabilize the building structurally. Secondly, efforts should be made to restore exterior features to cease further deterioration and prevent water intrusion by remedying exterior deficiencies. Structural repairs would include the in-kind repair of brick piers, wood framing, and log cladding. Significant jacking to alleviate deflection will need to occur. As the log cladding serves as the building's siding, by repairing or selectively replacing the significantly deteriorated logs in-kind, the exterior cladding would shed water. Furthermore, in-kind repairs to eave brackets, rafter tails, roofing, and flashing will help ensure that degradation due to water intrusion is ceased. This is a critical step in protecting this unique building from further loss of historic fabric.

The project supports food history research, collections and programming at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. 

Since 1996, the National Museum of American History (Museum) has stimulated senses and minds through the Smithsonian Food History Project (Food History Project) using food as both a solid platform and a powerful lens to explore American history. As one of the Museum’s major research, collection, and program initiatives, food history connects our global audiences with the past, present, and each other. 

Nearly 4 million annual visitors are invited to learn about the historical influences of food, culinary leaders, and cooking traditions through three pillars of the Food History Project:

I - Research conducted by Food History curatorial staff.	

2 - Collections including:
FOOD:  Transforming the American Table – The permanent and popular food exhibit explores America’s past, present, and future of food and drink and includes the installation of Julia Child's home kitchen from her former home in Cambridge, which was featured in many of her later television programs.

3 - Programming:
o	Food History Weekend – Named Best Festival for Food Lovers, the Food History Weekend welcomes the public to lectures, cooking demonstrations, tastings, exhibits, and tours to celebrate the way Americans eat, drink, and cook. The cornerstone of the vibrant weekend is the Food History Gala, featuring the presentation of the prestigious Julia Child Award.

o	The Julia Child Award recognizes the profound gifts of individuals or teams as food educators, communicators, innovators, mentors, and bridge-builders, and applauds their integrity, independence, and public-spirit. The Julia Child Foundation for Gastronomy and Culinary Arts (The Julia Child Foundation) co-hosts the Food History Gala and underwrites the award, including $50,000 grants to food-related non-profits of the awardees’ choosing. 

o	Cooking Up History – Since 2015, Cooking Up History has brought people together with live cooking demonstrations. In a state-of-the-art demonstration kitchen in the Museum’s Innovation Wing, guest chefs share fresh insights into many cultures, traditions, recipes, ingredients, and culinary techniques that shape what is served on tables across the nation.

o	Last Call – Last Call moderated discussions plus beer tastings attract visitors from various backgrounds, expanding audiences for the Museum and brewers.

To serve as the testimony of our gratefulness towards all the G.I.s who, at the risk of their lives, gave us our freedom back.

To create a truly unique space and experience. 
 
 Founded in 1994, the Remember Museum is one of the most interesting of its kind. It is housed in an old renovated barn and is comprised mainly of items abandoned by the American First Infantry Division soldiers who once enjoyed "R & R" at the Schmetz' s farm when Marcel was a young boy. The artifacts include personal items given by numerous WWII Veterans from various units. It is a museum with a human dimension, made great by its welcoming environment, its originality, its simplicity. The museum strives to serve as the testimony of our gratefulness towards all the G.I.s who, at the risk of their lives, gave us our freedom back. Because curators Marcel & Mathilde (M&M) are nearing retirement, the museum and its contents will be transferred to the King Baudouin Foundation and a board of directors will manage the future of this great endeavor, while keeping it warm and personal much like M&M themselves. Thank you for your donation!

Preserving unique treasures of French heritage as well as their natural environment.

The Mansart Foundation aims to revive heritage of outstanding interest, whether historical or contemporary: natural and landscaped sites (parks, botanical gardens), architectural buildings (monuments, residences, industrial establishments), collections and museums.

These places are our heritage and have shaped our art of living, the French Art de vivre. These sites all deserve to be preserved in a sustainable way to be passed on to future generations. This is the purpose of the Mansart Foundation. 

The Foundation focuses on a strong social mission. It aims to open its doors to less privileged visitors and enable them to discover and appreciate legacy buildings, art history and natural environments, thereby helping them develop both their understanding, curiosity, and creativity. 

The Mansart Foundation supports a variety of projects within different sheltered foundations. 

Already owner of the  Chateau de Maintenon , the Foundation is also restoring the  Chateau de Bagatelle to open it to the public. This chateau - listed as a historical monument since 1978 - is exceptional, both for its own history and the one of its owners, and for its location in the heart of Paris and its great architectural quality. 

Under the aegis of the Mansart Foundation, the  Amici Terrae Sanctae Foundation  was created to support the Terra Sancta Museum project in Jerusalem. This museum will present the roots of Christianity and the Treasures of the Holy Sepulchre, composed of unique pieces. Through a rare collection of paintings, sculptures, archival documents and sumptuous gifts from European courts, the works revealed will attest to the centrality and splendor of Jerusalem throughout the centuries. 

To sustain the actions in favor of  Parisian museums , the Mansart Foundation associated with the Friends of the Pompidou Center and the Friends of the Museum of Modern Art in Paris to create under its aegis respectively the Foundation of the Friends of the Pompidou Center and the Foundation of the Friends of the MAM Paris. By donating to these foundations, you will support exceptional cultural projects and contribute to the development of the collections of these museums. 

To safeguard heritage and bring it back to life, while acting in favor of local development and regional planning, the Mansart Foundation provides support to  the Rempart construction sites  through the creation of the Union Rempart sheltered Foundation. These workcamps are not only places to discover heritage and restoration techniques, but also places to learn how to live together and to exercise citizenship.  

The Mansart Foundation is involved in the promotion and animation of the Vauban Citadel in Belle-Ile-en-Mer, a listed historic monument, and the  Vauban sites of Belle-Ile-en-Mer and Morbihan . For this purpose, the sheltered foundation of the Vauban sites of Belle-Ile-en-Mer and Morbihan was created under the aegis of the Mansart Foundation.  

The sheltered foundation for the Preservation of the  Abbaye des Vaux de Cernay and the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse  was created to support the project to restore and develop the remarkable heritage of the former Vaux de Cernay Abbey. The Vaux de Cernay Abbey, a 12th century Cistercian abbey, is a unique, fascinating, and mysterious place located in the heart of the Chevreuse Valley in the state forest of Rambouillet. 

The  Hortus Botanica Foundation  was created to develop an action in favor of gardens and botanical heritage. Its purpose is to help preserve, restore, create, animate, develop, and share to the public the plant heritage, the heritage built or unbuilt, and the gardens existing or to be created, in connection with it. It participates in the cultural dynamization of the living and historical heritage in order to perpetuate extraordinary places.

With fewer eyewitnesses each passing year, Europe Remembers seeks actively to promote new ways of commemorating and remembering World War II for the future.

- Youth Programme

The LRE Foundation is committed to promoting innovative active remembrance and memory transmission projects targeting the younger generations through the LRE Youth Programme. An essential feature of these initiatives is the inclusion and sharing of diverse experiences, applying a multi-perspective approach to WWII history and remembrance.

With HistoryTreks, funded by the Erasmus+ programme, students of different countries get together to reflect on the history and impact of WWII on their regions with formal and non-formal learning methods, including hiking the Liberation Route Europe and visiting remembrance sites along the way.

In turn, with EASTory through their Eyes and Persecution through their Eyes, young Europeans are invited to learn about personal stories of people who experienced WWII and its consequences across Europe, reflecting on the complexity of such shared history. The ‘through their Eyes’ series combines an online and travelling exhibition with youth events in partner locations and is funded by the Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values programme of the EU.

Active Cultures is a Los Angeles–based public arts organization dedicated to the intersectional space between art and foodways.

Active Cultures is a Los Angeles–based public arts organization dedicated to the artistic exploration of our global foodways—the attitudes, practices, and histories around what we consume. We believe that by nurturing vital collaborations between artists, food practitioners, and their communities, we can illuminate global foodways and feed experimental artistic practice simultaneously, to build stronger connections of empathy, curiosity, and care among us all. Throughout our programming, we offer platforms to broaden the cultural frameworks around food and foodways, while using food to gather people and make an accessible space for contemporary art and culture. Each of our program seasons begins with central collaborations with artists, and is enriched by a variety of activities, including performances, workshops, conversations, meals, and multifaceted projects.

To engage children of all ages and abilities in learning through imaginative play and discovery

The Children's Museum of the Magic Valley (CMMV) is an emerging hands-on children's museum to be located in Twin Falls, Idaho. CMMV will focus exhibits, programming, and children's activities on the Magic Valley's 37,000 children ages birth through eleven years. The research and concept development behind CMMV has been ongoing since mid-2018 when it was founded as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

Our goal is to establish a permanent, state-of-the-art children's museum in Twin Falls. The Twin Falls Urban Renewal Agency (URA) entered into exclusive negotiations with CMMV for the purchase of a .50 acre lot in downtown Twin Falls on the corner of 3rd Street South and Idaho Street South. Downtown Twin Falls is the heart of our community, and CMMV is eager and committed to becoming a vital part of this historical area. Currently, we operate as a "Museum without Walls" with mobile exhibit events throughout the region. Contact us to learn more.

We are excited to see the magic within the Magic Valley unfold as we work together to create a beautiful museum for our children.

Using art as a vehicle for social change, while connecting the shared history, values and futures of Africa and its Diaspora!

The experiences and cultural contributions of people of African descent have been marginalized throughout history and MoCADA’s mission is to undertake the responsibility of rewriting that history in order to give a more accurate portrayal of the contributions of people of African descent to the artistic and global landscape.

The Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts (MoCADA) uplifts the visual, literary, and performing arts as a conduit that connects the shared history, values, and futures of Africa and its diaspora, for the purpose of advancing dialogue on pressing social + political issues faced by these communities. We give platform within our safe spaces to artists whose work honor, celebrate, and expand this rich conversation while inviting our community in to explore, engage, and thrive within our collective evolution.

For 20 years, MoCADA has empowered vulnerable communities and instilled a sense of pride in visitors through representation and access to the arts including 100+ groundbreaking artists from 20+ countries (Terence Nance, Dread Scott, Wangechi Mutu, etc) whose voices have gone largely ignored; to Black, LatinX, Indigenous, especially, low income, children, women, immigrants, elders, LGBTQ+, people living with disabilities etc from the communities of Central Brooklyn and beyond.
