EXPANDING THE VISION CAPITAL CAMPAIGN

Donate Now
Join us in realizing the vision of a new, expanded, upgraded and more accessible facility that will more fully support all of Kala’s programs for artists, the community and public school children.  Your contribution directed specifically to the capital campaign will help Kala to achieve its fundraising goal of $997,500.  To donate please go to Make a Donation page.

Named Gift Opportunities
Kala is expanding its facility in the historic Heinz building where we have been located since 1979.   In April 2009, Kala will open its doors to a new gallery, classroom, artists work rooms, print and media study center, conference room, and other spaces in a far more visible and publicly accessible street level location.  Named Gift Opportunities are currently available in this new facility.  Please click here for further information.
