The Wanlass Foundation is dedicated to preserving and sharing historically significant works of art, design, and automotive culture in ways that ignite curiosity and inspire lifelong learning.
Rooted in the belief that creativity is a bridge between generations, we work to protect and elevate the legacies of visionaries whose work continues to shape our world. Fromk the art of sculpture and literature to concept vehicles and industrial design, we ensure these cultural treasures are not forgotten, but experienced, studied, and celebrated.
Inspired by the wonder of childhood discovery, our mission extends beyond preservation. We support programs that use art to engage underserved communities, individuals with autism, and those in recovery harnessing creative expression as a powerful tool for connection, healing, and growth.
We preserve the past to awaken the imagination of the future.
Whether you're a collector considering a legacy gift, a donor with questions, a museum partner, or a member of the community who shares our vision — we’d love to hear from you.
