Why donate to the MMFA?

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts has been an integral part of Quebec’s and Canada’s cultural scene since 1860. One of the oldest museums in North America, it serves as a focal point for the transmission of culture to all generations.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of visitors are drawn to the Museum’s remarkable collections, quality exhibitions, and diverse educational and community programs. The institution’s impact extends far beyond the walls of the Museum, captivating audiences of all ages and from all walks of life, both in Canada and around the world.

Making a planned gift to the MMFA is about opting to be part of this history that has been unfolding for over a century and a half. It’s about investing in a future in which art has always—and continues to be—a powerful tool for educating, rallying, and inspiring people. It’s about making a lasting and meaningful gesture, one that reflects your values while supporting an institution that is inclusive, engaged in the community, and resolutely forward-looking.
