Community Support

The Columbia Museum of Art is pleased to receive your request for complimentary passes to South Carolina’s premier international art museum. Each year, the Museum receives many applications requesting free admission. As much as we would like to honor them all, it is very difficult to do so. As a non-profit organization, the Museum receives 15% of its revenue from earned revenue including admissions. As such, it is necessary for the Museum to limit the number of complimentary passes (valued at $10 each) we distribute each year. Not all requests will be honored, but most who apply in a timely manner (at least 1 month in advance) are rewarded.  Click here to download the donation application.
