Individual Gifts
A popular and rewarding way for individuals to support the List Visual Arts Center’s Student Loan Art Program is to join the MIT Friends of Boston Art. Members participate in 3-4 special events, tours, and talks each year, and dues are used to purchase Boston artists’ prints and photographs that are loaned to MIT students.
