Your Legacy Starts Here

A planned gift is a meaningful way to support the New York Mills Regional Cultural Center (legal name: New York Mills Arts Retreat) for generations to come—while costing you nothing today.

By including the Cultural Center in your estate plans, you help ensure that arts, culture, and creativity remain accessible in our rural community for years to come.

Ways to Give

You can include the Cultural Center in your:

Will or living trust
Retirement account (IRA, 401(k), etc.)
Life insurance policy
Beneficiary designations
Other estate plans

There is no minimum gift amount, and you can update your plans at any time.

Sample Bequest Language

If you are working with an attorney, you can use or adapt the following language:

“I give to the New York Mills Arts Retreat, a nonprofit organization located in New York Mills, Minnesota, EIN 41-1690163, the sum of $_____ (or ____% of my estate, or the residue of my estate) to be used for its general charitable purposes.”

This language is provided as a guide and can be tailored to fit your wishes.

Why It Matters

Your legacy gift helps:

Sustain access to arts and cultural programming
Support future generations of artists and learners
Strengthen community vitality in rural Minnesota

Every gift—no matter the size—makes a lasting difference.
