IHA Permanent Collection
Indiana Heritage Arts has been building a permanent collection. We hope that future generations will be able to enjoy the exceptional work of today’s artists just as we appreciate the legacy left by earlier artists.

IHA Permanent Collection Endowment Fund
In 2006, IHA established an Irrevocable Permanent Collection Endowment Fund with the Brown County Community Foundation. The fund not only allows IHA to care for its permanent art collection but can be used for future purchases, insurance, display cost, and other educational projects. Anyone can donate either directly to the Brown County Community Foundation, with a notation on the face of the check that it is for the “IHA Permanent Art Collection,” or through the IHA annual membership renewal form. We welcome your support!
