DePaul Art Museum
Be part of the 2023 Blue Demon Challenge: give now!

The Blue Demon Challenge (BDC) is DePaul University's annual day of giving, when alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff and friends come together to give back—and this year we're raising our sights again! Your gift of any size during the BDC can help us get closer to reaching our goal of raising $7,000,000 in a single day!

During the BDC, your gift to the DePaul Art Museum can go even further! When we receive 25 gifts to the DePaul Art Museum, leaders from the museum board will give $17,000!


DePaul Art Museum (DPAM) enriches DePaul University’s commitment to innovation, diversity and education through the interdisciplinary lens of art. The museum is a dynamic, inclusive space for art and ideas to connect people across local, national and international communities. The museum’s exhibitions, public programs, and permanent collection advance knowledge and understanding in a global society.

DPAM’s purpose is to connect people through art and ideas that explore the vast range of human experience and expression. We provide an inclusive platform for innovative artistic voices with a program that bridges local and global concerns.

The DePaul Art Museum provides an opportunity to encounter art in a spirit of open inquiry: a comfortable place to explore challenging ideas. With six or more exhibitions per year and innovative programs and events, the museum has quickly become a vibrant and accessible center for the arts in Chicago. Your gift helps expand and care for its teaching collection and develop exhibitions and educational programs. DPAM is committed to remaining free and open to the public, and your gift during the Blue Demon Challenge ensures that we are able to remain a resource to the University and greater community.
