YOUR DONATION HELPS US KEEP OUR HEAT ON THIS WINTER!

Dear Friends,

Most don’t realize how much time, money, and incredible talent goes into keeping our doors open to stage concerts, open mic’s, poetry readings, music festivals, classes, and art exhibitions. Behind every experience at Workshop13 is a dedicated artist, musician, potter, poet, administrator, and volunteer hard at work.

Nothing makes us happier than seeing smiles on the faces of the many people who have been touched by an experience at Workshop13. We love what we do, but can't do it without your support. Our 127-year-old building is costly to maintain, especially in winter!

Our Annual Appeal provides an essential source of income to ensure that we can continue to deliver fine arts and cultural programming to our rural communities. As prices increase everywhere, our priorities right now are to secure funding to keep for:

• Operating Expenses such as heating, electricity, maintenance, building improvements, paid staff, and contract workers.
• Financial Aid for a sliding scale option for all programs, breaking the barriers of accessibility for our low and fixed-income patrons.

With your help, we can keep our heat on and programs accessible. Do you have more time than money? We always need volunteers! Please email marie@workshop13.org to get on our volunteer list. Donations can be made online, or by check payable to Workshop13, 13 Church St., Ware, MA 01082.

Thank you so much for your time and consideration.

With gratitude and well wishes,

Marie Lauderdale

Executive Director
