Since 1917, when we began as the Art Club of St. Petersburg, the Morean Arts Center has contributed to arts education and arts appreciation in our community for generations.

The 1917 Society recognizes and honors those friends and members of the Morean Arts Center who have thoughtfully provided for our future. By including the Morean in your estate plans, you are ensuring that Morean will be able to continue to build upon the strength of its education programs and the Chihuly Collection and remain the premier arts facility of its kind.  

So that we can recognize you, please notify us if your will or life income arrangement provides for the Morean Arts Center. Please contact Development at 727-822-7872 ext 2120 or [email protected].

Your gift to the Morean accomplishes more than support of our high-quality class and programming. It helps further our mission to push artists to achieve mastery, to stretch the boundaries of existing art, and to reach new levels of cultural expression. In short, contributions to the arts help ensure the continued vitality of the arts in our communities and in our society as a whole.  Without donors like you, we would not be able to provide the exceptional programs that we do today.
