Each year the Pettitt Group chooses 12 nonprofit arts organizations to support. We donate $1,000 to one of the groups every month during the year.

Announcing the 2020 Pettitt Group Art Collection

In 2017 the Pettitt Group created a project with the goal of giving art to our clients at every closing. We collaborated with Karen Bubb to create an original piece of art. We reproduced it, had each copy professionally framed, and gifted it to each of our clients throughout the year. Since 2018 we have curated twelve original works annually.

We proudly present the 2020 Collection, curated by Kirsten Furlong, lecturer and gallery director of the Visual Arts Center at Boise State University:
