We need your help!
Help support this strong public arts program that benefits the entire community and nurtures artistic expression.
I am writing you today to ask for a donation on behalf of
Lampasas Association for the Arts, (LAFTA).
Now, I know you have had a tough year, as have all of us. However
here are some reasons you should think about donating to LAFTA.
As you may know, LAFTA is responsible for developing the Hanna Springs
Sculpture Garden, right here in Lampasas, which has been called “a
pearl in the Central Texas Region”.
What does that do for Lampasas and the surrounding area?
- Provides an opportunity for at least 21 school districts, not to mention our own, to take advantage of an outdoor teaching facility to provide for their students a fuller, more complete education.
- It is fast becoming a tourist destination for travelers who are driving through the Central Texas region.
- It has been a flash point for the town of Lampasas and has provided the spark for the momentum of development you may have been noticing around town.
- Provides a contemplative place for senior citizens in nursing homes to visit.
- You get a tangible place where you can have a quiet cultural refuge from all of our hectic schedules.
- A place to bring your children and visiting friends.
In order for us to continue to develop the park to meet the needs of
visitors and local population, we need you to help us with a
donation.
Your gift will make a HUGE difference in our being able to develop
the Hanna Springs Sculpture Garden and to fund the 5th Anniversary of
the “Art in the Park” Event, which happens every last weekend of
April. This is a great event to bring your family and friends to,
so mark your calendars!
Oh yes, we are of course, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization
and all of your donation can be written off this year’s taxes.
Perhaps the greatest benefit you’ll receive, though is
knowing you’re helping to ensure that students will continue to get a
wonderful place for you and your loved ones to spend quality time.
So please, right now while everything is in front of you,
take a minute to write your tax-deducible check and sent it to the
Lampasas Association for the Arts at the address below.
Thank you,
Nancy Gray, President
Lampasas Association for the Arts
