Get ready for Giving Tuesday with the Thornapple Arts Council! Following Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration, and it is on Giving Tuesday that TAC kicks off its year-end giving campaign.

There are a couple reasons!
While the Thornapple Arts Council is fortunate to receive an operational grant from MCACA (Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs) each year, there is always a need for funds. We depend in part on donations from our community in order to continue serving Barry County. In 2018, we exceeded our Giving Tuesday goal of $2500!
To show our appreciation for the community, we are pleased to announce our 2019 Giving Tuesday campaign theme: Pajama Giving! This campaign focuses on the ease with which you can donate from anywhere at any time, even from your couch in your pajamas! How does this particular theme show our appreciation? You’ll have to wait and see!

While our official campaign will kick off with a fundraiser on our Facebook page, you can also give via our website, over the phone, or by check!
