Leave Your Mark on the Grounds of William King Museum of Art
The grounds of William King Museum of Art are more than a striking setting and an important part of the museum experience. They reflect the beautiful biodiversity of the Appalachian Highlands. Our campus provides a welcoming place where visitors gather, explore, learn, create, and connect with art, nature, and one another.
Through the William King Museum of Art Tree Naming Program, individuals, families, businesses, and organizations have the opportunity to make a lasting contribution to the museum by sponsoring and naming a tree on our historic campus.
A named tree provides a meaningful way to honor someone special, commemorate an important occasion, recognize a family or organization, or create a lasting legacy at the museum.
A Living Legacy
Trees are enduring symbols of growth, strength, connection, and continuity. A named tree at William King Museum of Art offers a unique opportunity to create a legacy that will become part of the museum’s campus for years to come.
Your gift can commemorate:
- A loved one or family member
- A birthday, anniversary, or milestone
- A wedding or other special occasion
- A business, organization, or community group
- A friend or mentor

Your Tree, Your Legacy
