GIVE MONTHLY AND BE A FRIEND OF ARTY!

Monthly donations are an easy and affordable way to help the Museum of the Dog celebrate the role of dogs in society and art.
Even small gifts, given consistently, can compound to help the Museum educate the public through its collection of visual art, cutting-edge technology, exhibitions, research materials, and educational programming.

WHO IS ARTY?

Arty is the mascot of the AKC Museum of the Dog and represents all dogs.

Arty is a reminder that dogs are an important part of our daily lives. Whether performing crucial jobs, going for a walk, playing in the park, or simply sitting beside us, they brighten our day. The Museum of the Dog is not just about fine art and prize-winning dogs, it’s about you and the dogs in your life!
