Help the future shine with creativity. Make a gift today.

Please consider a donation to Appel Farm, which will help us reach our goal of raising $40,000 to keep Appel Farm’s legacy alive and flourishing. Thanks to a challenge grant from the Salem Health & Wellness Foundation, the first $20,000 in donations received by December 31 will be DOUBLED!

You’ve told us that Appel Farm is your artistic home—a place where creativity flourishes, community thrives, and inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. 

Thanks to your support, we engage thousands of artmakers each year in programs that seek to realize Albert and Clare Appel’s vision for Appel Farm: a vibrant art center offering transformative experiences for arts learners and creators of all ages. Together, we have:

  • Welcomed 322 campers to Appel Farm Arts Camp 2024
  • Offered over 80 Arts Labs classes at Appel Farm and more than 40 free community classes at local libraries
  • Hosted the inaugural OASIS (Open & Safe Inclusive Spaces) Weekend Art Retreat
  • Adjudicated nearly 3,500 artist submissions in regional youth arts contests

Now we need your help to continue this vital work. Your tax-deductible gift strengthens our scholarship program, invests in community arts classes, and connects artists as they thrive in our community. 

Thank you for supporting Appel Farm!
