**Happy Holidays from the City Reliquary!**

As 2022 comes to a close, we wanted to share some of the great things we were able to accomplish this past year, thanks to you. Check out our [Annual Report](https://celebrate.cityreliquary.org), and make sure to scroll through the photos of this year's Reliquary activities (you might see yourself and your friends!).


**3,204 Museum Visitors**

This year, more people visited the Reliquary's collection of New York relics than since the pandemic forced major changes to our lives nearly three years ago. Many hailed from the tri-state area, but several international tourists also included us in their NYC itinerary.

**65 Backyard Events**

In 2022 we also continued hosting a diverse slate of backyard events. We've been so excited and grateful to offer a platform to the New York creatives, both native and newcomer, who define our city.

**$29,087 in Member Support**

The sustained support of our members helps us keep serving as a testing ground and laboratory for innovative projects that celebrate New York in all its diversity and complexity.

**$13,218 in One-Time Donations**

Generous one-time contributions of all sizes have helped further our mission of elevating the overlooked areas of NYC history and amplifying the voices of all New Yorkers. These gifts included generous grant support from the Louis and Anne Abrons Foundation.

Together, we accomplished so much in the past year. We plan to do even more in 2023, but we can't do it without your help. We know you must be getting a lot of requests for donations this time of year. But if you're able, please consider purchasing a membership, for yourself or as a gift, or making a one-time donation. ***We can't do this without you!***

As always, thank you for your support of the City Reliquary. We look forward to seeing you in the new year!
