Run for the Arts is October 4th! Now is the time to get pledges of support. Our goal for this fundraiser is $10,000 and every dollar gets us closer to covering expenses for theater tech for all of our performances, after school music programs, guest resident teachers for visual arts and dance and more. You can ask neighbors, friends and family to support the run with a set amount or a per lap pledge. Use the paper pledge form that came home this week or set up an online page that can be easily shared via email or social media. Families are encouraged to join us on run day to cheer on the runners and mark laps. The run will take place from 2:30 to 3 pm. Set up a runner online donation site with Young Audiences now. 


Volunteers Needed! 
There are now several signups ready for upcoming events. Please take a look and sign up to help where you can. We cannot do these things without family support.
