WITH YOUR HELP, WE WILL CONTINUE
EMPOWERING THE ARTS AND ENRICHING THE COMMUNITY...TOGETHER
A Message From Our President
Dear Friends, In 2015, a small group of founding members came together to launch the concept of Sandwich Arts Alliance, an artist-driven nonprofit organization to empower artists and culturally enrich our community. In just 8 short years, we have been joined by over 400 members who have found a home for their artistic endeavors. Each of our groups, Visual, Performing and Literary Arts, is directed by our talented Coordinators who design program content for their audiences with creativity and lot of fun in mind. Together, they are the face of SAA to the public through exhibits, performances, and special events. In the past year, we have hosted well over 85 of them, each one either low-cost or free as a gift to our community. As we are entering giving season, I’d like to ask you to spend a portion of your donation dollars with us! Your gift, either large or small, will give us the ability to continue the work we have set out to achieve. Together, we can ‘Empower The Arts and Enrich Our Community’! Gratefully, Kathy Aubin SAA's Creative Economy
Over the past 12 months Sandwich Arts Alliance has sold 99 pieces of original gallery art, 176 books by local authors and 913 original gift shop art for its Visual Arts and Literary Arts members. This amounted to a total of $54,850 in sales. SAA members received $38,597 in earned income from those sales.
In addition, hundreds of local residents and off-Cape visitors attended our Performing Arts productions, providing income for the performers, revenue for local restaurants and businesses. All contributing to the Cape’s Creative Economy. Fill the Gap
As you can see from the chart, support from our programs, membership, sponsors and grants can only go so far. There is a gap that needs to be filed from donations. To continue growing the arts in Sandwich, the Sandwich Arts Alliance needs YOUR help to Fill The Gap.
Let's make it happen TOGETHER!
