Donate to the Center
Donations to the Center are critical to our work in sustaining and interpreting all that Cranbrook has to offer. Contributions of any amount help to uncover Cranbrook’s history and strengthen the promise of our future.
Since its inception in 2012, the Center has had a strong and expanding core of loyal supporters, allowing us to have operating flexibility as well as expand our programs and protect the collections under our care. We would like to take this opportunity to recognize on the Center’s virtual “Donor Wall” those individuals and foundations whose cumulative giving to the Center has exceeded $5,000 in monetary gifts.
