Since 1925, when Mrs. Stephen I. Munger made the Museum’s first planned gift, the Dallas Museum of Art has received support from many thoughtful individuals who, through financial and estate planning, have helped ensure the Museum’s ability to inspire and engage visitors for generations to come.
With a planned gift you can
- Provide for you and your loved ones
- Enjoy charitable income and/or gift or estate tax deductions
- Make a more significant gift to the Museum than you could in your lifetime
- Leave a legacy for the Dallas Museum of Art
The DMA welcomes the opportunity to work with you and your financial advisor on your planned gift. There are a variety of financial vehicles available to help you reach your financial and philanthropic goals:
- Bequests
- Life insurance policies
- Retirement plan assets
- Life income plans
- Gifts of art*
* If you are considering a gift of art to the DMA, you should first contact the appropriate curatorial department to discuss the gift.
