Quick summary of November's PAF meeting

Hello, all--

Thought I'd try posting an abbreviated version of the Performing Arts Foundation minutes here. Contact us at performingartsfoundation@gmail.com if you'd like the full treatment! And join us for our next meeting at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, December 8, at the Richland Area Community Center, 9400 East CD Avenue.


GLCS Performing Arts Foundation
Regular meeting November 10, 2009


Present:
Murray Cooper, Pat Hanavan, Robin Nott, Jan Watson

Guest artists:
Robin reported that Kinetic Affect will come to Gull Lake High School and Middle School as spoken word artists this spring, doing two performances at each school and conducting a workshop with a creative writing class. Robin will apply for grants from PAF and the GL Schools Foundation.

PAF Promise: Robin has received 10 requests for “pay for play” scholarships so far; he expects a few more by the time payment is due—around November 23, when PAC’s state tour show auditions begin—and will submit a request to PAF at that time. PAF has received several donations in response to, some specifically designated for, this need and will be able to provide the scholarships.

PAC Tour Show:
This year’s show's playwright Julia Jordan has approved the Performing Arts Company’s shortening the play for festival use, and also has kindly asked that her royalty be donated; it will go to PAF.

Grant requests
for pizza for an informational/recruitment meeting for PAC’s state tour show on November 17 and for materials for the successful Scream Team event at Halloween were approved.

PAF Banner:
Randy Walbridge will have camera-ready text and image by a student ready for the December 8 PAF meeting.

Respectfully submitted,


Pat Hanavan, secretary
