This Giving Tuesday, December 2nd, as the holiday season begins, the global movement of generosity reminds us to step back from consumerism and focus on paying it forward—helping those in our community less fortunate.

For the Art League of Ocean City (ALOC), this day is a critical lifeline. While we are proud to open our doors year-round with free admission to the public, the soaring operating costs of our $1.8 million budget, combined with unexpected funding cuts, threaten our ability to sustain the free programs that define us.

Your donation today allows us to continue providing free after-school art enrichment for children in Title I schools, offering healing art classes for those struggling with grief and stress, and most critically, securing the future of the arts in the Delmarva region.

By contributing to the ALOC now, you are empowering us to deliver compassion, creativity, and crucial educational opportunities to everyone—from the youngest student picking up a paintbrush to the aspiring college artist. Let your generosity be the gift that helps us help hundreds of others this season!
