The art scene at the University of California, Davis, just got even better.
In their first major commitment to UC Davis, philanthropists Kellie and Jeff Hepper ’79 have pledged $1 million to create the Hepper Family Exhibition Fund, an endowed gift to support the core exhibition work of the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art.
This is the largest gift made to the museum by an alumnus, and it will help create public exhibitions and exhibition-related programming for all to enjoy at the Manetti Shrem Museum.
“Kellie and Jeff Hepper embody the spirit of UC Davis: They are serious about playful creativity, and it shows in their wonderful contemporary art collection,” said Rachel Teagle, founding director of the Manetti Shrem Museum.
