MOG’s spring appeal supports every area of the Museum, from educational programming and community partnerships to exhibitions and the Hot Shop. Your 100% tax-deductible contribution funds critical operating expenses not fully covered by membership support and guest tickets. Please consider making a gift today so that we can continue to ignite creativity and fuel discovery through glass and glassmaking.

Planned Giving

We hope you will consider making Museum of Glass part of your legacy. A planned gift, or bequest, becomes a part of your estate and provides sustaining benefits to the Museum. Please consider MOG in your long-term plans, so together, we can shape the future of glass. 

Making a legacy gift can be as easy as designating Museum of Glass as the beneficiary on:

• Life insurance policies

• Individual retirement accounts or employer-sponsored retirement plans

• Brokerage accounts

• Checking or savings accounts

Program Support

Through numerous programs, Museum of Glass strives to increase glass art awareness and appreciation for students of all ages. Gifts can be made to support a specific program, or collectively to support educational programming at the Museum. These programs range from activities for school-age youth and families to providing hands-on opportunities with glass for people of all ages.

Matching Gifts

Many employers offer a way to enhance your giving through a matching gifts program. When combined with your donation, this program can increase your contribution to Museum of Glass. Don't forget, buying a membership counts as a donation and qualifies to be matched! The matching gift does not change your membership level, but rather encourages additional support of the arts.

You’ll want to contact your employer’s Community Relations or Human Resources department to verify that a matching gifts program exists. If offered, they will provide you with simple steps to follow.  Mail any correspondence to Development, Museum of Glass, 1801 Dock Street, Tacoma, WA 98402 or email us.

One Time Donation

As a non-profit institution, MOG depends on support from ticket and membership sales, grants, and general donations to help bring a world-class experience to our visitors. Any donation, large or small, contributes to MOG's exhibitions, hands-on workshops, and programs like Science of Art, Hot Shop Heroes, Kids Design Glass, and of course, the Visiting Artist Residency program. With your help, MOG can continue to achieve its mission to ignite creativity, fuel discovery, and enrich lives through glass and glassmaking.
