“Art is not a mirror held up to society but a hammer with which to shape it.” - Bertolt Brecht

Supporting the arts and artists is essential to thriving communities - now more than ever. Gallery5 may have gotten through 2020 and the pandemic, but like you, we face a new society and state of the country in 2025. And we are inspired, even more now, to do everything we can to provide accessible, inspiring, and relevant arts programming to the community, as well as support to the artists who make that programming.

For our Fall Fund Drive this year, our goal is to raise $10,000 to fund our Arts for All programming (our free programs like First Fridays, Parallel Listening Room, and Jazz Night, for example). This will support sound engineering fees, artist and community producer stipends, and other costs associated with producing these events, so that they can remain free to the public to attend.

All donation amounts are heartily welcomed! We believe in the power of everyday people to come together around powerful ideas in the arts – and we see that when you all donate to our fund drives! Whether your donation totals $5 or $500, we can’t be grassroots without grassroots support like yours.

The Fall Fund Drive will take place from November 1st through December 2nd (Giving Tuesday!), with a big ole’ “THANKFUL FOR YOU” concert on November 22nd. All concert ticket proceeds will also go into the $10,000 goal for this fund drive, as well as donations made when checking out at the bar or front door at events throughout October and November.

So donate on our website, buy a concert ticket, or donate at checkout – or all of the above! We are grateful for you, and can’t wait to see what this community can do for the artists and arts programs we provide!
