The Lexington Art League is taking part in the Good Giving Challenge this year! 
Help us out this December 3rd-6th by donating as part of the Good Giving Challenge. Every donation made through the challenge can qualify for matching funds and work towards secondary awards and prizes. Some matching funds and prizes are time sensitive so make to to check them out before the Challenge starts! All funds raised during the Challenge will be used for general operating costs of the Lexington Art League. These funds will keep the lights on, the House warm, pay our staff a fair wage, pay any artists we bring in for events and workshops, make sure we have labels for all the artwork, provide the yummy nibbles we have a openings, buy art supplies for our summer kid's programs, buy nails and spackle and paint to maintain the galleries, and much much more. It takes a lot to run an arts organization; a lot in effort, in passion, in labor, in love, and in money. Every little bit helps!

Matching Gifts

Three generous donors are offering matching gifts for this year's Good Giving Challenge! If we complete a matching gift early the next one will become available soon after. Let's make sure we don't miss out on these funds!

The Ann Dupree Matching Gift - Every donation on day one will be matched dollar for dollar up to $1,000.
The Jim Gray Matching Gift - Every donation on day two will be matched dollar for dollar up to $1,500.

If you give, you could win a prize!

Art is for Everyone Prize - Once per day during the Good Giving Challenge we will select a name at random from those who have given that day to come to the Loudoun House to select an artwork of their choice from our collection of orphaned art.
​Loudoun by Candlelight  - Those that give $100 or more will be entered into a drawing to win a sumptuous candlelit dinner for six to be held at the Loudoun House. The drawing will take place after the Good Giving Challenge is completed.
