Donate Artwork

Works of art stand at the heart of the Minnesota Museum of American Art’s mission and focus. The museum’s permanent collection contains approximately 3,700 pieces of American art that range from the 19th century to the present. Artworks include paintings, prints, photographs, sculpture, drawings, and studio crafts, including textiles, ceramics, wood and metalwork, and furniture.

The collection has grown since the 1950s through a combination of purchase, gift, and bequest. Gifting of artwork from donors and collectors is one of the most important elements in growing a strong and representative collection of the most outstanding examples of American art.

If you have artworks you would like to donate to the MMAA, please contact:

Executive Director
