ArtMatters Newsletter Dec 2020

ArtMatters Newsletter

Welcome to the ACCC ArtMatters Newsletter for December 2020

Greetings,
As we reflect on this past year, we remain thankful. We are humbled by the good we see in our community. We are grateful for the support and friendships in our close-knit community. And, we thank you for being part of the ACCC family. On behalf of the Board of Directors, we wish you all a safe, healthy and happy holiday season.
All the best,
Cynthia Anderson
ACCC President

The ACCC participated in the #GivingTuesday campaign on December 1, 2020. If you missed it, you can still donate through December 24th!

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.
GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Over the past 8 years, this idea has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

We rely on donations, sponsorships, memberships, grants, and contributions to support our initiatives and programs throughout the year. We work to fulfill our mission of elevating the arts within our communities. If you’d like to make a year-end donation, we have open arms for your support. We accept donations from individuals, families, charitable funds, estates, charitable organizations, businesses, schools, government agencies and nonprofits. You don’t need to be an artist to support the ARTS!

As a 501(c)3, the Arts Consortium of Carver County is a registered charitable organization. Your Donation should be 100% tax deductible. Please verify with your accountant. Thank you for your support!

You can still donate to our #GivingTuesday campaign through December 24th via our website.
