The Ren Giving Community is for those who believe that putting artists forward is a powerful act. Your gift doesn’t just fund one exhibition—it makes everything possible: the research, the resources, the relationships, the risks, and the realities of bringing ambitious new art into the world.

We give artists the space and support to take their boldest steps—and offer those ideas a platform to resonate far beyond our walls. When you join the Ren Giving Community, you become part of this legacy.

Ren Giving Community members are invited into a closer relationship with the Ren as an extension of our ethos of collaboration, curiosity, and care. These experiences are intimate, considered, and purpose-driven.
