Darlington Art Center

Special Events

Darlington Arts Center is a nonprofit organization. Because tuition makes up less than 70% of our expenses, we depend on our special events, parents, alumni, individuals, corporate and foundation donors for their annual support. It is through the commitment and generosity of these supporters, as well as our faculty and staff, that the Center’s programs and beautiful new facility are possible. All donations are tax deductible.
