WITH YOUR DONATION
YOU MAKE ART HAPPEN.

For more than a decade, MING Studios has brought contemporary art to Boise through exhibitions, international artist residencies, performances, artist talks, film screenings, and community programs. Since opening in 2014, MING has presented artists from more than 15 countries and hosted 25 residencies, creating meaningful opportunities for cultural exchange between visiting artists, local artists, and Boise audiences. Our programs give the public opportunities to encounter new ideas and perspectives while providing artists with space, time, and resources to develop and share their work.

Since 2022, MING has also provided opportunities for young artists through Insight of Youth, a program for artists ages 13–19 that combines mentorship, creative development, and public exhibition. The program gives young people the opportunity to see themselves as part of Boise’s contemporary arts community and to experience what it means to develop and present their work publicly.

MING depends on grants, earned income, and individual donors to make these programs possible. Your contribution helps pay artists, support international residencies, produce exhibitions and events, provide materials for youth programs, and maintain the space and resources behind our work. Donations also help us keep our exhibitions, events, and public programs free and accessible to the community. By supporting MING Studios, you help bring artists and ideas from around the world to Boise while creating opportunities for our local community to participate, connect, and experience contemporary art.
