ArtSpace Re-Framed: Arts for the Community
A Message from Gail Erwin
President, ArtSpace Board of Directors
Hello friends and supporters of ArtSpace!
ArtSpace has an ambitious goal of raising $1.25 million to get our studio program back up and running. We’ve made excellent progress, raising close to $700,000 through grants, foundation gifts, private donations and corporate sponsorships.
We appreciate all the support our donors have been able to give. As a non-profit 501(c)(3), this support is essential for our success as an arts organization. We look forward to hosting art shows, artist talks, open studios, our annual holiday sale, and classes for all ages, once we have our organization back on solid footing.
ArtSpace is a community whose creative energy is embedded in the town of Maynard’s culture. By making a generous contribution to our organization, you can help ensure that we continue to serve, inspire, and bring vibrancy to the metro-west region for our next 20 years and beyond.
Thank you for your continuing support and consideration.
Best wishes,
Gail Erwin, President
