ART is dedicated to provide meaningful opportunities for the private individuals, companies and organizations to make more meaningful contributions to archaeological research, to get involved in local projects, and to communicate research results to the larger public. The ART Fund wants to connect its supporters with the work SCIAA does in order to provide a real sense of involvement in this fascinating and important work.

There are a number of ways you can help:

• Consider a tax-deductible gift to the ART Fund. Every dollar you give will be directly used to support the Archeological Research Trust vital work. This can be done online or by writing your check to the ART Fund at the address listed below. Please make all checks payable to the USC Educational Foundation.
• Sign up for Legacy Magazine and ART email updates to keep abreast of work going on in South Carolina at all the projects. Contact us to sign up.
• Become a member of the ART Society ($500 annually)! You’ll received all the above information plus invitations to quarterly meetings with our ART board at project locations around the state.
• Provide substantial support to the ART Fund’s future with a gift through your estate plan or through a gift of life insurance or some other appreciated asset. The ART Fund was started more than 20 years ago through just such a generous act. You can impact archaeological and anthropological research in South Carolina for future generations. Just contact us if you want more information or need assistance. The ART Funds tax deductibility may help your estate.
