Donations and Sponsorships

Your generosity helps EPMA continue to inspire and engage our borderland community through exhibitions, education, and cultural programming. Every gift—large or small—makes a lasting impact by supporting acquisitions, conservation, preservation, interpretation, and educational initiatives beyond what city funding provides.

All contributions to EPMA are tax-deductible. Donors are recognized on our website and in select print materials. Exceptional support is honored on the EPMA donor wall, located in the museum’s main lobby.

In-Kind Sponsorships

The Museum accepts many forms of in-kind support, from beverages and catering for opening receptions to furniture and studio equipment for the Art School. If you would like to contribute goods or services, the money saved from your in-kind contribution will be applied directly to programs and exhibitions. Please contact the Development Department to discuss your desire to make an in-kind donation.

Please be advised that as a nonprofit organization, the Museum is prohibited from establishing monetary gift values. Donors must determine the value of in-kind gifts. Donations are tax-deductible within IRS regulations.


Gifting Works of Art

EPMA actively acquires works of art related to its prominent collections of American, Mexican, and European art. All gifts are reviewed and acceptance is dependent on internal assessment of the Curatorial Department and Museums and Cultural Affairs Advisory Board (MCAAB).
