A Message from Larry Beavers, Board President
Dear Members,
What an exciting year we have ahead of us! With the opening our new facility, we have so much we can deliver back to the public that will be very inspiring for a lot of people. I’m proud to be part of such a great organization and to be able to give back to the community in so many ways.
The new facility has now gone from concept to reality, and it has become even more than we could have dreamed. We can now offer multiple art shows in 4 different galleries all at the same time. We are also able to offer so many new programs that we couldn’t have before like art education classes for adults and children, as well as culinary classes in our new restaurant-size kitchen. We also have a beautiful clay studio with classes that are booked and with full attendance since it opened.
Plus, we can’t forget to mention all that the new Rockport Conference Center offers as well. We’ve already held music concerts and book signings, and we are booking meetings, retreats, weddings and all sorts of other events for the coming months. This facility is available for rent, and revenues generated will benefit the entire center.
Finally, we have a gorgeous sculpture garden that connects the two structures in the best way. To say I’m excited about what our new facility can offer would be an understatement. Together, the future of the Rockport Center for the Arts is very bright!
Sincerely,
Larry E. Beavers
Board President
