This season, we are giving thanks for the incredible community that makes MCA possible: our dedicated staff and board, talented artists, engaged members, active program participants, and generous supporters like you. Your generosity fuels creativity across Maine, helping artists connect with opportunities, audiences, and one another.

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to pay it forward by supporting the Bliss Fund. MCA’s scholarship fund ensures that all artists can participate in our educational programs, such as our workshop series or annual MCA Haystack Weekend, regardless of ability to pay. Your gift helps cover program fees, travel, lodging, and materials, removing financial barriers so artists can fully engage in learning, grow their skills, and connect with peers and mentors. 

“Opportunities like Haystack weekend have been invaluable. Having a larger community of peers for support and to learn from has been and continues to be an invaluable resource.” – MCA program participant. 

Every contribution, no matter the size, broadens access and enriches our programs with diverse voices and perspectives.

Celebrate creativity this season. Support the Bliss Fund with a year-end gift today.

The Maine Crafts Association is a 501(c)(3) organization and your gift is tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
