Brady and Jeanne Foust

In September of 2021 Brady and Jeanne Foust donated $1 million to Pablo Center's Turn It Up To Eleven Campaign. With this gift, Pablo Center permanently renamed the Graham Avenue Gallery to the Brady & Jeanne Foust Gallery. Highly accessible and located on the first floor of Pablo Center, the Brady & Jeanne Foust Gallery highlights exhibits inspired by our community. All who walk through the halls of Pablo Center deepen their appreciation of the Chippewa Valley as they enjoy student art exhibits, and themed exhibits inspired by our region's flora, fauna, and folks.

"We are honored to be able to provide this gift to Pablo Center," says Brady and Jeanne Foust. "Support of the arts is one of our passions. Pablo is one of the gems in the redevelopment of downtown Eau Claire and has already become a great recruiting tool attracting people and businesses to our wonderful city."

For Executive Director Jason Jon Anderson, the Fousts' gift can be described in three words, "Incredible lasting legacy."

Brady and Jeanne Foust have been passionate advocates for Pablo Center since the inception of the Confluence Project. They helped secure countless pledges ensuring the project's construction. With this tremendous gift they ensure a lasting legacy to the fine, visual and performing arts of the region as well as for the 100,000+ guests Pablo Center welcomes each year.

Their legacy will live on to impact our community for many generations to come.

"During these past couple of years it has been fun to see people arriving and leaving the Pablo Center while enjoying the various art shows that have been in the Foust Gallery. We especially love seeing young people and children stopping to really take a look at the works of art. How wonderful is that? Thank you to the staff of the Pablo Center for making it such an inviting venue."
