Shemer Wish List
We have developed a Wish List to fill specific needs of the center. We recognize that sometimes our patrons have access to items that the Shemer Art Center needs and would prefer to donate items that are needed to help us develop our programs and services to the community. We will keep our list current, but if you have any questions on the specific needs you see here, feel free to call us at 602-262-4727 for more specifics.
