Council of 101, founded in 1965, financially supports the Orlando Museum of Art and encourages the cultural development and education of the visual arts in Central Florida. This group of dedicated volunteers is committed to the museum through service and leadership demonstrated in volunteer hours, financial contributions, and the diverse skills shared to create and execute three annual fundraising events; the Festival of Trees, Art in Bloom and our Corporate Lease Program. The Council of 101, since its inception, has contributed over $12 million toward the acquisition of art, exhibitions, facility renovation and museum expansion programs. The Council of 101 consists of approximately 300 provisional, active, associate and sustaining members. Financial commitments and committee obligations for members help facilitate the mission of Council of 101 to provide financial resources for the museum.
