THANK YOU TO OUR WONDERFUL BUSINESS AND INDIVIDUAL SPONSORS
For 25 years, Art in the Pass has attracted thousands of local and regional visitors to our historic community of Pass Christian. As one of the premier vetted art shows on the Gulf Coast, Art in the Pass supports art education in Harrison and Hancock County schools while showcasing Pass Christian as a community that truly values art.
We are hoping that you will be an individual or business sponsor, a role that is critical to allowing us to continue our mission. The sponsorship levels and details are on the back of this letter. Funds raised directly benefit our Gulf Coast communities. Due to your generosity last year, we were able to increase to four our scholarships for rising high school seniors who are pursuing art education. Plus we will made significant grants for art supplies to 11 area high schools, the Pass Christian School District and the Pass Christian Boys and Girls Club. This year, with the invaluable help of our sponsors, we will provide $27,000 in scholarships, grants and awards.
As we are known to do, each year Art in the Pass thanks its sponsors with a great party. We plan to do the same this year at the home of Dr. Abha and Mr. Binoy Mishra, 753 East Scenic Drive. Most of the materials and furnishings were imported from India to create this unique home. This special event will be held Sunday, March 26, starting at 6pm. We will have great food, drinks, and live music with the promise to have a good time.
On behalf of the Board of Directors for Art in the Pass, we sincerely thank you for your participation.
