Support 10 for 10 — Celebrating a Decade of The CAN

For 10 years, the CAN has championed artists, sparked community through creativity, and transformed public spaces with art. From residencies, workshops, and exhibitions to public projects, we’re building a legacy of growth and collaboration.

Now, as we celebrate our 10th anniversary, we invite you to join us in shaping the next decade.

The Goal

Together, we’re raising $10,000 by December 31, 2025. With gifts starting at just $10, your support will fuel:

Public Programming — free workshops and community events
Exhibitions — curating globally competitive exhibitions in Hampton Roads
Residencies — giving artists space, time, and mentorship
Public Projects — murals, and more to beautify spaces and bring art to the public

Every Gift Matters

Whether you give $10, $100, or $1,000, you’re helping sustain creativity and community for years to come.

Join the Celebration

Make your gift today and become part of CAN’s story. Together, we’ll ensure the next decade of art and community thrives — tenfold.
