Donate

BWS accepts donations that are used for one of the following:

• General Fund - which can be used for operating costs as the BWS Board deems fit consistent with our status as a non-profit organization, the BWS By-laws, and Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 (or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue Law).
• Annual MICA Scholarship and Public School Award Fund - Scholarships are given to a College student continuing their studies in the visual arts. Awards are given to High School students working in watermedia.
• BWS Mid-Atlantic Exhibition Awards - which is used to fund one or more awards given to artists whose work is included in the Mid-Atlantic Juried Exhibition.
• BWS Mid-Atlantic Memorial or Honor Award - This type of award is to recognize the memory or work of the person identified in the title of the award. Please be sure to include in the Comment field the name of the person memorialized or honored by your donation.

The default is to channel the funds to the General Fund, you can change that selection if you want to direct your funds specifically to the Scholarship award fund or BWS Mid-Atlantic funds.

All donations made to the society are used strictly for educational purposes. No goods or services are provided in return for your gift. Donations are deductible for federal income tax purposes to the full extent of the law.
