Subject: Port Angeles Fine Arts Center,Annual Appeal
Dear Lee
Almost 30 years ago, Port Angeles was the beneficiary
of truly generous gift when Esther Webster donated her
unique home and wooded acres to create the Port
Angeles Fine Arts Center (PAFAC). Thatgift has brought
great pride to our community. Fine art exhibitions,
education programs, special events, and walks through
Webster's Woods are synonymous with the PAFAC.
As someone who appreciates art,you know that these
experiences open our minds to the power that art can
bring to everyone!
Our "Paint the Peninsula", Plein Air event will continue
to remind us of the endless opportunities to capture the
picturesque Olympic Peninsula on canvas! With your T
financial support,we will continue to promote the Port
Angeles Fine Arts Center and preserve our cultural
heritage.
Nowis the time foryou togive back. Your cash
donation to our Annual Appeal will make a difference,
because although not every young person will be an artist,
they will be better students, employees, and citizens if
they have opportunities to embrace creativity.
In the past few years,we have introduced new art classes for students of all ages.
Your support will provide additional fine art activities and events for the entire
community.
We are listening to you! The Can-Center newsletter will include more
information to highlight our gallery exhibits, Peninsula artists, new programming
and events each month. Also, watch for PAFAC on Facebook in the New Year!
Thank you for your generous donation. You will enrich and encourage future
generations to celebrate creativity, cultivate arts appreciation, and strengthen our
community bonds.
Sincerely,
Port Angeles Fine Arts Center Foundation

Phillis D. Olson, President.
