Thanks

We would like to thank the sponsors of the 2010 Celebrate the Arts Month promotion.  Title sponsor was the Moran-Edwards Asset Management Group.  Sponsors were Edison State College; the law firm of Hahn Loeser; Wayne Meland of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney;

Media sponsors were Comcast, Gulfshore Life magazine and Naples Daily News.

The Celebrate kick-off event was co-chaired by Sue Huff and Marilyn Varcoe.

Attention Photographers!

Clyde Butcher will once again serve as juror for the United Arts Council's annual photography exhibit at Rookery Bay.  Cash awards of $1750 will go to the winners.  Deadline for applications is Dec. 9th.  Click here for more information.

Advocacy

We'll be contacting you early in 2011 for help with our advocacy efforts.  As noted in our last newsletter, Florida now ranks an embarrassing #49 in state funding for the arts.  We'll need your help contacting our elected officials in Tallahassee to help improve this standing!

Bayshore

The Bayshore Cultural and Performing Arts (CAPA) organization asked us to share a newspaper editorial that appeared recently in support of the Erich Kunzel Community Concert Series.  Click on this link to learn more about their plans.

Happy Holidays

With the holidays fast approaching, we want to take this opportunity to thank you for your support of our organization.  The friendship and support that all of you show us throughout the year is the best gift we could ask for.  Happy Holidays!
