The William Kent Art Foundation is dedicated to celebrating and supporting elder artists aged 60 and above. Too often, an artist’s lifetime of work goes unrecognized, and these vital cultural contributions fade away unseen.

Guided by William Kent’s wishes, the Foundation is committed to recognizing elder artists who have faced hardship or barriers to sharing their work. We support their creative journeys, help them gain recognition, and provide new spaces where their art can be appreciated—sparking creativity in people’s lives across generations.

Through our programs and advocacy, we help artists overcome challenges that limit their ability to share or continue their creative work. Honoring William Kent’s vision, we create opportunities for visibility, connection, and support so that every artist’s voice can endure.

Rooted in the greater New England area, the William Kent Art Foundation is building a caring community of support and opportunity for elder artists. Together, we create connections, lift up overlooked voices, and ensure that artists who have devoted their lives to their craft—and have so much wisdom to offer—are not lost to the future.

With your donation, you help keep their legacy alive. Join us in honoring the artists who continue to inspire creativity, resilience, and hope in us all.
