Join us in raising the roof at The Bastion for Erie Gives Day. DONATE MIDNIGHT - MIDNIGHT HERE

You are invited to wander the building and donate to be apart of our Raise the Roof campaign.

We're hosting an Open House at The Bastion!

This year we are raising funds to continue renovations to the historic home turned art house, with all Erie Gives donations going towards stabilizing the roof. From 11am–2pm, The Bastion will be open for tours as we showcase the beauty and art that lives within the space.

Guests will also get to experience a brand-new collaborative mural inspired by Matisse, created by students from the Masters in the Making Summer Art Camp led by Jamie Keim-Pomorski and Sarah Moody. During the Open House, visitors will be invited to paint a shape (by donation) that will become part of the mural, leaving their own creative mark on The Bastion as part of Erie Gives Day.

Refreshments will be available as we welcome you to tour the building and learn more about how your donations will greatly impact our space.

If you’re especially eager to give and would prefer to donate now, you can make checks out to The 1020 Collective and send them to the Erie Community Foundation! As always, we thank you for your support and donation.
