Mail should be sent to 1171 Main St., St. Johnsbury, VT 05819. Your Annual Fund donation may also include:

A Memorial Gift

Donations in memory of someone may be designated as part of any contribution to the Athenaeum. Once a year memorial gifts are listed in our annual donor list.

An Honor Gift

Donations in honor of someone may also be designated as part of any contribution to the Athenaeum. The honoree (or their family) will receive a note acknowledging this gift.

Friends of the Athenaeum

Here is an opportunity to support the organization by donating your time and talent in a variety of ways; along with providing necessary financial support.
