Ways to Give
Financial Support
The Novelty Collective has come a long way since we started in 2016. We have served thousands of kids & adults through our regular programming, summer camps, creative workshops, & community events. Our reach has grown far beyond Pittsburgh from the East Coast to the West. Over the last decade, we have seen fledgling art careers springboard, new music projects launch, & beautiful collaborations come together under our roof. The team has witnessed more miracles than we can count, & it has all been made possible by the faithful giving of our generous donors. We only get to continue the kingdom work we are called to because of people like you who believe in the mission & support this ministry.
We are always praying for partners who can commit to a monthly donation. When you contribute to our general fund, your gift goes toward program costs & event expenses, from our daily Afterschool activities to our annual art festivals.
The COVE Wish List
All of our programs & events at The COVE Art Center are absolutely free for everyone. Part of our mission to make art accessible means removing the biggest barrier that keeps people from creating: the high cost of tools & materials. However, as you know, nothing is ever truly free. To keep our studios stocked with fresh canvas, yarn, art paper, ink, fabric, markers & other such supplies, we rely on in-kind donations. Another way you can partner with The Novelty Collective is by purchasing these items directly from our Amazon wishlist. If there is a particular art you are personally passionate about, this can be a fun way to contribute.
Make Space
Right now, we are in the middle of an epic renovation project to transform the Creative Reuse Studio! The team has been dreaming into this space for a long time, & we are finally taking it to the next level. Our current challenge is to refurnish the space to maximize its functionality. Once we tackle storage, workspace, & lighting, we can move on to filling it with art supplies! We are calling on our NoCo family to help fund this endeavor.
