Support the Arts
The Center for the Arts is a vital piece of our North Shore community, offering diverse, high quality events in theatre, dance, music, art and creative writing. While the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is the university's largest single donor, contributing nearly 40 percent of our operating budget, we still rely on our loyal audience, neighbors, alumni, parents, and local business leaders to contribute the 60 percent that makes up the difference.
Please help us to continue to keep these events affordable and of the highest quality. Be a part of our audience. Make art a part of your life, part of our students' lives and part of the rich experience of living on the North Shore. Your tax-deductible gift will help build the foundation of the next generation of artists and arts patrons.
Please contribute what you can to the Center for the Arts at Salem State University.
Sincerely,
Karen Gahagan
