SUPPORT YOUR GALLERY!

The Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery is Waterloo Region's leading public art gallery, connecting people and ideas through art, with a focus on the best of contemporary culture.

From our humble beginnings in a bicycle shed to our current 23,500 square foot location in Centre In The Square, KWAG has worked for over six decades to strengthen the cultural and social fabric of our region.

KWAG provides unique and important services to the entire region. With the support and dedication of a loyal and influential base of individual supporters, including you, KWAG raises over 50% of its overall budget with donations from private foundations, individual donors and the corporate community. KWAG is a registered charity (#107579674RR0001) and a not-for-profit organization.

You can make an annual contribution, pay with monthly installments (bank or credit card) or contribute shares. For as little as $10 a monthly, you can support our exhibitions and public programs as well as enjoy reciprocal benefits through the Ontario Association of Art Galleries.
