Support the Curator

Since 2008, the Curator has engaged in, as founding editor Alissa Wilkinson said, “an exuberant, wide-ranging celebration of the best things humans make and do.” Through its many iterations, it’s been supported by passionate volunteers–editors, writers, and artists.

To make it work, we’re inviting readers like you to help keep up the magazine’s legacy of exploring objects and their meaning.

We believe the work of our contributors is valuable, adding beauty and insight to the world. And one of our primary goals in re-launching The Curator is to pay our contributors for that work.

You can also send us a tip on Venmo. The cost of a cup of coffee goes a long way!

We’re actively seeking branded and organizational partnerships that want to reach our arts-focused audience through sponsored content. If your brand or organization is interested in partnering with The Curator, email John Hawbaker at editor@curatormagazine.com.
