Sponsor a Crèche

In keeping with tradition, LUMA offers members and

friends the opportunity to honor their heritage, family or

friends by sponsoring a Nativity scene in this holiday

exhibition.

The core of LUMA’s funding for this

exhibition comes from generous benefactors like you!

When you sponsor a crèche for $150 or more, your name

and message will be featured on the crèche wall label.

Your support will also be recognized in the museum’s next

LUMANARY magazine.

Sponsor the Crèche of the Year

LUMA’s 2017 Crèche of the Year features the whimsical

woodcarving of award-winning Polish folk artist Boleslaw

Parasion. In this celebratory scene, a trio of graceful

angels serenade the Holy Family with a mandolin, a string

bass, and a trumpet. Parasion is well known for his vividly

colorful depictions of holy stories and carves his scenes in

linden wood, which is commonly used for altarpieces and

icon painting. This unique sponsorship is available

at $1,000.
