Be a part of our founding story

Why Donate?

The Clearing is an artist-run organization dedicated to creating meaningful encounters between artists, ideas, and the public. Through exhibitions, workshops, publications, and shared experiences, we create space for experimentation, dialogue, and the kinds of conversations that often can't happen within traditional institutions.

We believe that art is not only something to be viewed—it is something that can bring people together, generate new ways of thinking, and deepen our relationship to place and to one another.

Your support helps us present ambitious exhibitions, invite artists to share their ideas, offer public programs, and continue developing The Clearing as a year-round cultural resource in the Hudson Valley.

As a fiscally sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, all donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Whether you make a one-time contribution or become a recurring supporter, your gift directly helps sustain a place where artists and communities can gather, experiment, and imagine what comes next.

Thank you for helping us build The Clearing.
