The San Luis Obispo Museum of Art is pleased to announce it has earned the Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid.org. Candid is an information service specializing in reporting on U.S. nonprofit companies. Through its GuideStar platform, Candid’s database provides information on over 2.5 million nonprofit organizations to help donors make informed decisions about their support.

The Platinum Seal is Candid’s highest level of recognition and serves as a tangible way to demonstrate an organization’s commitment to transparency. To meet the requirements for the Platinum Level, organizations must make public information about their programming, achievements, governance structure, finances, strategic goals, and metrics around diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The San Luis Obispo Museum of Art is committed to open governance and is working hard to further increasing transparency and access to the visual arts. This achievement is a direct result of the Museum board’s mandate that it operates at the highest levels of excellence in its field and in the region.
