"Buildings are enabling devices. It is not just the walls, but what goes on inside, that brings out the best in our students and empowers them to impact their communities."
- Max M. Fisher

Education, Arts, & Culture

To support education, promote the arts and enhance the discovery, documentation and preservation of ancient and modern cultures.

  • advance the documentation, dissemination and preservation of knowledge on a global scale,
  • encourage scholarly work into the arts and ancient cultures,
  • promote the arts with an emphasis in dance, music and art museums
  • and seek to preserve ancient and modern cultures, particularly those in Egypt and Israel.
