Every Contribution Matters
Art Legacy Institute exists because artists deserve better. Building trusted legacy infrastructure cannot be accomplished by three retired FBI Art Crime Team agents alone. It requires a community of artists, collectors, galleries, museums, educators, attorneys, technologists, donors, and institutional partners who believe in protecting the future of art.
Every contribution—financial, strategic, professional, or personal—helps us preserve the work, protect the artist, and power the legacy.
Preserve the Work. Protect the Artist. Power the Legacy.

Executive Board Leadership
Help shape ALI’s future.
ALI is building a small Executive Board of visionary philanthropists, business leaders, and cultural advocates who believe in our mission and want to help guide the organization’s long-term growth and impact.
The right Executive Board member brings more than advice. They may provide significant direct financial support, help open doors to major donors and institutional partners, strengthen ALI’s national visibility, and offer strategic counsel as our programs expand.
If you believe in preserving artists’ legacies and are interested in supporting ALI from a high-level strategic and philanthropic perspective, we invite you to begin a private conversation.
Executive Board participation is selective and considered through individual conversations with ALI’s leadership.
