Institute on Aging: San Francisco Senior Care & Services

Corporate Art Lending

Institute on Aging’s Center for Elders and Youth in the Arts (CEYA) offers attractive, evocative and educational artwork promoting positive aging in our community. Under direction from professional artists, senior and youth artists develop one of-a-kind pieces that reveal a unique perspective on life.

Tailored to serve the Bay Area’s older population, CEYA’s visual and performing arts programs help elders connect to community life through, painting, poetry, oral history and theatre. By integrating youth and senior art programs, teens and elders gain understanding, and improve physical health and emotional well-being.

Why Lease Art?

Unique artwork adds personality, dimension and interest to corporate office space. Greet clients and visitors with vibrant images that display your commitment to creativity and beauty, and to the community. Add to employee satisfaction with a work environment enlivened by art. An additional benefit, a portion of the lease fee is tax deductible.

Adding luster to your office also supports healthy lives and creative expression in the Bay Area’s senior community. CEYA's corporate art lending program supports year round visual and performing arts programs and community exhibitions for elders and youth throughout the Bay Area. Your contribution enables CEYA to hire local professional artists, writers, choral instructors and dancers to instruct 500 elders and 100 youth every year. It also helps underwrite an average of nine free community exhibitions, three performances and two youth internships annually.

About CEYA's Galleries

CEYA artworks are divided into galleries of eight to twenty pieces. A gallery can be leased in whole or in part, based on the available display space. Our designers and artists will assess your site to ensure a successful exhibition. Each artwork is a high-quality print of original art created by a CEYA participant. Contact CEYA today to request a gallery lease.
