Heights Arts 2024 Annual Fund
It’s once again time for our annual fund campaign, which provides us with critical support in serving our mission to connect arts and community. If you gave in the past, you already know the impact of your gift. If you are new to us, we hope you will help us sustain our important programming, and we invite you to experience some of our many offerings in poetry, music, and visual arts and crafts in the coming year, along with upcoming special anniversary activities.
THREE WAYS TO HELP US ACHIEVE OUR GOALS
- Give to our Annual Fund at any level
- Support our goal to become Barrier Free with an additional gift
- Join our 2025 Club
Help Us Become Barrier-Free
Around the themes of Belonging and Collaboration for our 25th Anniversary, we will pull from the deep roots we already have in the community. You will see programming with our longtime dedicated partners, and new collaborations with partners who are excited to work with us to accomplish this refined vision for our mission. We will strive to remove any barriers facing our artists, musicians, poets, and community members that prevent them from participating in or experiencing our rich programming.
We thank the Jack, Joseph nd Morton Mandel and Peggy and John Garson Foundations for providing seed money for this initiative. If you are interested in supporting this new vision—a world where our artists and audiences are helped with any barrier that prevents them from participating, including framing or other materials, transportation to and from events, reimbursement for childcare, or reduced and free admissions, please consider making a contribution to our Arts Access Fund in addition to your generous annual support. We will list your name as an inaugural contributor, to this important initiative.
With gratitude,
Rachel Bernstein, Executive Director and Steve Presser, Board President
Become a member of the Heights Arts 2025 Club
The dazzling 20th-anniversary celebration Heights Arts had planned in 2020 was canceled due to the pandemic. Undaunted, we are now redirecting our excitement and energy to our 25th anniversary in 2025! The Heights Arts 2025 Club is a group of dedicated arts champions who believe in helping sustain Heights Arts and our mission to serve the many literary, musical, and visual artists who live in and enrich the region and bring their contributions to the community.
2025 Club members pledge to give $2500 or more between now and June 30, 2025. Club members receive recognition on our website and other materials, and will be invited to a special event in the fall of 2025 honoring their dedication to Heights Arts, and celebrating our accomplishments in connecting arts and community over the last 25 years.
We ask that you consider a gift at any level – knowing it will make a big difference to our small but mighty organization. Gifts of $50 or more receive membership benefits. We are grateful to our generous supporters, who show us that our work is meaningful and makes a difference.
