Arts Advocacy

Working directly with individuals and through other organizations, the mission of the NAMTA Foundation is to nurture fine artists and inspire new participants in the visual arts through scholarships and grants on an international basis.

We do this by raising money from individuals, companies and grant sources, as well as fundraising projects during the year. The NAMTA Foundation is a 501(c)(3) incorporated non-profit charity.
