HOW
TO BECOME A FOUNDING MEMBER OF MUSEHOUSE
In this,
our inaugural year, your financial help can make a critical
difference. Through grants, donations and earned income
from our workshops, we hope to provide the Chestnut Hill,
Mt. Airy and Germantown Community with a rich resource for
writers for many years to come. Were proud that every
one of our special events in the fall is free and open to
the public and we hope to continue to do.
This year, every donated dollar we receive (up to $50,000)
will be matched by the Knight Foundation, so, in essence
your generosity will be doubled. Our goal is to find 500
founding members who will each contribute $100 or $250 or
$500 or $1000 or more! Not only would this sustain us financially,
it would convey a powerful message of confidence in the
Musehouse vision that the writers in northwest Philadelphia
deserve a dedicated space where they can work and grow together.
Founding Members will receive:
Two tickets to the Members Only Reception (a lovely
evening of music, appetizers, wine and special favors,
AND
An autographed copy of a book by the featured reader at
the Members Only Reception.
ADDITIONALLY! The first one-hundred founding members will
be invited to choose a name or book title to be incorporated
into a one-of-a kind painting entitled Musehouse
Bookcase by renowned artist Susan Schary. This painting
will be on permanent display in the Musehouse.
All
donations are tax-deductible and should be made payable
to our fiscal sponsor The MIAMI FOUNDATION with
the word Musehouse noted on the subject line. We are currently
in the process of attaining 501 C3 status.
