Organization Mission:

The Delaware Contemporary’s mission is to infuse contemporary art and creativity into the community through compelling exhibitions, dynamic educational experiences, and access to the artistic process.

The power of art to bring connection, comfort, joy, and inspiration has never been more important! We are excited to join our community of Delaware nonprofits for this annual collaborative effort to celebrate philanthropy in Delaware.

Funds raised will support our exhibition programming offering new and innovative ways to engage with contemporary art! Fall 2022 features the medium of GLASS and will introduce the Corning Museum Mobile Hot Shop to the Wilmington Riverfront. This unique glass experience includes live demonstrations, audience participation, and celebrity appearances!

As we progress through 2022, we strive to:
  • Support and invest in individuals at the cutting edge of their fields, whose work impacts the cultural landscape at large.
  • Encourage hundreds of artists to explore their ideas and work within the context of the MidAtlantic region.
  • Bring a community of artists to the MidAtlantic region and create opportunities for engagement and cross-cultural exchange with audiences.

Increase your impact! Thank you to the Delaware Division of the Arts (DDOA) for once again offering the stretch pool to receive matching dollars on a proportionate basis! Thank you to our friends, donors, staff, and board of directors for continuing the importance of art in our community!
About The Delaware Contemporary

The Delaware Contemporary is our state’s premier contemporary art museum. Founded in 1979 by artists, The Delaware Contemporary presents exhibitions of regionally, nationally, and internationally recognized artists that explore topical issues in contemporary art and society. 

Our effort to strengthen the museum’s programs and footprint in our community is rooted in two key things: expanding opportunities for artists at all levels of their careers and bringing together artists with viewers to dialogue on important shared issues. 

The Delaware Contemporary houses 7 galleries, 26 artist studios, a gallery shop, an auditorium, and a classroom. Located on the popular Riverfront Wilmington, surrounded by restaurants and attractions for all ages, the museum presents over 24 exhibitions annually of regionally, nationally, and internationally recognized artists.
