Support Us
DeCA operates as a not-for-profit. It funds operations and programs through a range of revenue channels including membership, individual giving, corporate sponsorship, institutional grants, and annual fundraising events.
Corporate Sponsors
Enterprises support and collaborate with DeCA in a variety of ways, from sponsoring exhibitions and programs to jointly developing projects. Sponsorship includes both cash and in-kind contributions, and can either be directed to specific DeCA projects, or take the form of an annual strategic partnership. Sponsorship brings a range of benefits, including brand placement and recognition, tax incentives, client cultivation opportunities, and art-adjacent marketing strategies.
Donations:
Cash contributions, whether made towards our annual fund or specific projects, constitute a valuable source of revenue for Dawn Eleven Contemporary Art Foundation. These donations support DeCA in its daily operations and long-term initiatives.
Gifts in-kind:
The contribution of goods and services, such as equipment for exhibitions, or speciality products for openings and special events, is of great assistance to DeCA. It can often form the basis of an exciting activation or collaboration for brands looking to position themselves in the art world.
Individual Giving
DeCA relies on the generosity of its individual donors to present its world-class program of exhibitions and initiatives to a public of more than a million visitors each year. Individual giving has an established history at DeCA: Founded in 2024, the DeCA Patrons Council was the first donor group of its kind in New York.
