How does Downsize for Diversity ART work?

Generous artists and donors across Massachusetts and New England donate original works of art and sculpture to the Boston Bridges Initiative, a 501(c)(3) based in Massachusetts, that helps support programs such as Friends of METCO, METCO, and other like organizations.

So Easy!

We come to you in our big truck and pick up all of your original artwork donations and give you an itemized, signed 501(c)3 tax receipt on the spot!

You can drop off to us in Lincoln, MA too!

The Boston Bridges Initiative then sells these artworks locally and all proceeds go to the Boston Bridges Initiative to fund their work supporting METCO and other like organizations throughout the year.

Call, text, or email Joanna Schmergel anytime to schedule a pick up at 617-645-9059 or owenjoanna@yahoo.com
