Dear Hammond Family,
The Hammond Friends of the Arts board is excited to begin this new school year. Friends of the Arts is a parent group whose purpose is to support the arts programs at Hammond through both volunteer work and the raising and disbursement of funds. Through your generosity last year, over $18,000 in membership dues were collected. In these past, Friends of the Arts funds, along with ticketed events, have made possible the following additions to our arts programs:
- New Art Displays for Barks Hall
- SMART Board for Lower School Art Room
- Lower School Instruments and Performance Equipment
- Lower School Guest Musicians
- 5/6 grade Music Instruments
- Middle and Upper School Band Instruments and Music Stands
- Renovated Drama/Tech Classroom in Bank of America Theatre
- Kiln Furniture for Pottery Studio
- Middle and Upper School Visual Arts Demonstration Table, Video Camera and Monitor
- Keyboard
- Contribution to Hammond Endowment
Please become a member of FOA with other parents who appreciate the value of a quality Fine Arts program as part of their child’s education. Thank you for supporting the Fine Arts program at Hammond!
Sincerely,
Caty Garside
Chair, Hammond FOA
