The Albany Institute of History & Art's mission is to connect diverse audiences to the art, history, and culture of the upper Hudson Valley through its collections, exhibitions, and programs.

Each year, the Albany Institute serves thousands of students with education programs, hosts numerous lectures and community events, welcomes researchers into the library, and curates special exhibitions.

Your donation to the Albany Institute of History & Art will help us to maintain our collection, to conduct research, and connect to thousands of visitors, from seniors to school groups.

This May, Your Donation Means Twice as Much

#GivingTuesdayNow is May 5, 2020

#GivingTuesday, traditionally the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, comes early this year as non-profits are reeling from the economic impact of COVID-19. Each gift made to the Albany Institute as a part of this campaign will be matched up to $15,000 by the museum’s Board of Trustees. In addition, to give back to another organization at the frontlines of the pandemic, the museum will donate 5.18% of the proceeds to Community Caregivers, a non-profit providing critical services to isolated seniors and disabled populations in the Capital Region.
