Across the Nation is a program that brings masterworks from the National Gallery of Art to young artists like Violet and to Americans across the country.

In 2026, the National Gallery of Art received a transformational gift from the Mitchell P. Rales Family Foundation to endow Across the Nation, the museum’s nationwide loan partnership program launched in 2025. Made to commemorate America’s 250th anniversary this year, the landmark gift funds the program in perpetuity. Now a foundational element of the museum’s national service, Across the Nation continues to advance the National Gallery’s ability to reach all Americans by bringing key works from the nation’s collection on long-term loan to regional museums across the country.

Because the nation’s art collection belongs to you.

Produced in collaboration with RAVA films.
