We’ve always had a creative gleam in our eyes and we’re now entering our 20th year of operation and SPA is gearing up for a one-year celebration that includes the creation of an endowment.  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 23 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 during SPA's Anniversary Celebration in 2020; 
  • 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!
