The Claremont Lewis Museum of Art invites you to join us as a sponsor for a very special milestone: our Fall Gala on September 19th, 2026, entitled “A Decade in the Depot,” will celebrate ten years since CLMA moved into the Historic Claremont Depot.
Since renovating the vacant Depot in 2016, CLMA has grown into a vibrant cultural anchor for our community—presenting thought-provoking exhibitions, supporting artists, offering educational programs for all ages, and activating a beloved historic space.
The Depot has become a gathering place
where art sparks conversation, inspires young creatives,
and strengthens civic pride.
This fall’s gala will celebrate those achievements, honor our supporters, and raise essential funds to sustain and expand CLMA’s programs and exhibitions for the next decade.
Your sponsorship will directly support:
- Original exhibitions and artist commissions that bring local and regional voices to the Museum;
- Arts education outreach for students and underserved community members;
- Preservation of our collection and activation of our historic Depot venue, ensuring a welcoming environment for all visitors; and
- Public programs—lectures, family workshops, and community events—that deepen access to and appreciation of the visual arts.
As a nonprofit cultural institution, CLMA’s ability to present meaningful experiences depends on the generosity of friends like you. Sponsorship of “A Decade in the Depot” is more than helping to underwrite a single evening—it is an investment in the cultural vitality of our community.
With your support, we will ensure that the next ten years are even better!
We are forever grateful for the support of our community.
