The Great Give is a 36-hour online giving event hosted by The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven and The Valley Community Foundation, connecting thousands of donors with nonprofits across our region to celebrate and support the work that strengthens our communities.
We at the Milford Arts Council are proud to join fellow local nonprofits in this inspiring event. Your support during The Great Give helps us—and others—thrive, grow, and continue making a meaningful impact through art, culture, and connection. Every donation is amplified through matching funds and prize opportunities, making your generosity go even further.
At MAC, we believe arts are essential—to community, connection, and culture. Certified as a 501(c)(3) since 1972, MAC is Connecticut’s only full-service arts organization supporting every form of art, from theater and music to dance, visual arts, and beyond.
