Hermitage Museum Foundation

The Hermitage Museum Foundation, established in 1994, is a registered IRS 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to promoting and preserving the rich collections of the Hermitage Museum. Through collaborations with individuals, institutions, and corporations, the foundation has successfully launched various projects and initiatives that serve as a cultural bridge to the arts, fostering dialogue and understanding between nations.

With a focus on expanding the representation of American photography in the Hermitage Museum's Contemporary Art Collection, the foundation has made significant contributions, including a gift of 21 pictures by renowned 20th-century American photographers. Additionally, the foundation has secured grants for the restoration of celebrated frescoes and has supported the republishing of volumes that celebrate the work of influential artists like Cy Twombly.
