Non-Profit Organizations- Raise Cash from Art Donations.

Non profit organizations such as museums, universities, churches, community support agencies and other groups often receive works of art including photography as a charitable donation. Many generous individuals pass along these works of art that they have enjoyed over the years to worthy organizations and get a tax advantaged treatment for the value of the artwork as well as the psychic payoff associated with a community philanthropic gesture.

The agencies that receive these gifts may not be able to fit them into their programs and may wish to convert some of these donations into cash to meet more pressing needs.

That is where Creighton-Davis comes in. We can appraise, catalog and market fine and decorative art of all types to an appropriate market at little or no cost to the institution. We can travel to your location and work out all the logistics from storage to transport thus taking the stain off already stretched resources at the institution.


And there is no cost associated with these programs except our fees deducted after sale and from the sales proceeds. A win-win proposition for cash strapped non-profit groups and institutions.



Contact us direct at sell@rareart.com for more information and to arrange an inventory and estimate on works that you may wish to sell.
