Mongolian tushkiiz The Textile Museum 1999.6.1 Gift of Ronald J. Deutch and Pamela J. Slutz

In order to present outstanding exhibitions and programs year after year, The Textile Museum relies on the ongoing generosity of members and friends. Gifts can be made to support general operating expenses, or one of the Museum's many special projects.

Sustaining Fund
Gifts to the Museum's Sustaining Fund, an annual fund of unrestricted gifts made above and beyond membership, are particularly welcome. The Sustaining Fund supports the Museum's general operations, including exhibition design and production; ongoing family programs such as Celebration of Textiles; content development and design of initiatives on The TM Web site; development of programs for teachers and schools; conservation of the Museum's unparalleled collections; publication of exhibition gallery guides, catalogues, and the bi-annual Textile Museum Journal; and maintenance of the lovely gardens and historic buildings that house the Museum.

Planned Gifts
A planned gift often allows donors to make a contribution larger than might otherwise be possible through outright gifts, and can result in significant tax benefits. Types of planned gifts include bequests, gifts of life insurance, or charitable trusts.
