TOM SOKOLOWSKI INTERNSHIP FUND
Donations to the Tom Sokolowski Internship Fund will help provide financial support to future Grey Art Museum student interns. Tom Sokolowski (1950–2020) was director of the Grey Art Gallery, as the museum was then known, from 1984 to 1996. His capacious intelligence and sharp wit informed the groundbreaking exhibitions he initiated at the Grey. Tom was also an NYU alum and an irrepressibly enthusiastic and supportive mentor to the students he supervised; this named internship honors his memory.
Gifts to this fund are 100% tax-deductible.
If you would like to make a donation by mail, wire transfer, or stock transfer please email Laurie Duke, Associate Director, at laurie[.]duke[at]nyu[.]edu.
GIVING GROUPS
We hope you will seriously consider joining one of the Grey Art Museums’s Giving Groups, described below. As New York City’s leading university museum, the Grey not only contributes to this international arts capital’s cultural vibrancy but also provides students (many of whom have never visited a museum before) with a friendly, unintimidating experience and the opportunity to view provocative, mind-expanding shows. Although New York University covers our basic operating expenses, the Grey must raise funds to support our exhibitions, publications, and public programs. Our Giving Group members appreciate the crucial role played by university museums—educating the next generation about the importance of art and visual literacy. Grey Giving Group members are entitled to attend the museum’s VIP receptions, to receive discounts on publications, and to participate in special Grey Art Museum–organized events. Please donate and advance this important cause! For more information, please call Laurie Duke at the Grey Art Museum, 212/998-6780 or email her at laurie[.]duke[at]nyu[.]edu.
