More Ways to Support SPA:


​SPA Building Repair Fund

Years ago, during conversations with several major building managers we were urged to start a Building Repair Fund because many components used in a major renovation project like ours require replacement once we reach out 18-20th year.  Our good intentions were challenged by several major issues:  the international pandemic and its related effects on our bottom line and the occurrence of 3 major floods in 12 months beginning July, 2023, and associated repairs.  (We continue to work to fortify areas of our historic foundation.)

Your donations to the SPA Building Repair Fund will be greatly beneficial to us as we tackle the large responsibility of managing an historic structure constructed in the late 1880's and renovated by us in the late 1990’s.

SPA Endowment Fund

We at SPA have always had a creative gleam in our eyes.  A small endowment will produce reliable unrestricted funds to protect SPA during economically turbulent times and offer flexible funds that let us respond to opportunities in a timely manner.
 
More than 25 years ago, we took on a project that some thought was implausible.  How could a band of inexperienced artists complete a major downtown historic renovation project destined otherwise for the wrecking ball or something similarly unimaginative?  Then, how could this same band of artists start a new regional arts organization from scratch?
 
It took a certain kind of boldness to create and develop SPA.  It will take that same boldness to plan for our sustainable future.

Our 2020 Vision Endowment will grow via:
  • Your special contribution to support the SPA Endowment Fund; 
  • Your naming SPA as a beneficiary in a bequest and/or adding SPA as a beneficiary to a life insurance policy.
We look forward to discussing our plans with you and providing additional information that will assist you in evaluating your plans to support SPA.  To discuss our campaign further, please contact Sue Higby, SPA Executive Director.
​
Thank you for your visionary support! .
