Support the Wyland Foundation’s 2025 Gala Auction and Help Protect the Planet

At the Wyland Foundation, our mission is simple: promote, protect, and preserve the world’s oceans, waterways, and marine life through education programs, public arts projects, and community events.

Since 1993, the Wyland Foundation, founded by marine life artist Wyland, has been at the forefront of environmental education and awareness, using art and science to inspire communities across the nation to take action to protect our planet. Our educational outreach and programs for students from Kindergarten through 12th grade—including the award-winning Clean Water Mobile Learning Center, National Classroom Mural and Art Challenge, National Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation, Earth Month Heroes program, our annual Earth Month partnership with KCBS TV, and many more—reach more than one million people each year!

We’re proud of the progress we’ve made, but our journey is far from over. As we gear up for our 32nd annual Fall Gala at the Gray Matter Museum of Art in San Clemente, CA, on November 15, we rely on the generosity of supporters like you to achieve our fundraising goal of $300,000 and propel our efforts forward.

Will you consider donating an auction item to help us achieve our mission?
