AMAZING THINGS ARTS CENTER HAS THE SUPPORT OF LOCAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS

FRAMINGHAM (June 5, 2018): Amazing Things Arts Center is the grateful recipient of several sponsorships from area banks this spring.

MutualOne Bank of Framingham, a long time sponsor and supporter of Amazing Things, once again demonstrated that commitment with a large grant to support our Community Programs. The organization will put this grant to use of the Jazz Show & Jam which meets weekly throughout the area. Thanks to MutualOne’s generosity, the cost for members and students will now only be $3.00 to participate with non-members paying $5.00. The Jazz Jam is a particular feature for students during the summer, who by participating, can play along side and make future contacts with professional musicians who both host the evening as well as participate in the Jam. MutualOne, formerly Framingham Cooperative Bank, has been a financial supporter of Amazing Things since 2010.

Middlesex Saving Bank has also been a frequent financial sponsor of Amazing Things. Most recently, they signed on as year long sponsors of our community programs, which, in addition to the Jazz Show & Jam, includes Folk Open Mic, Comedy Show & Open Mic and Rhythm with Reason. In the past, Middlesex Savings Bank has awarded capacity building grants to the organization to test out new staff roles such as membership coordinator.
 

And last but certainly not least, Avidia Bank, which opened its first Framingham branch last fall, recently accepted our grant application to help fund new sound equipment. Amazing Things Arts Center has just signed on to host a residency of the group We Did It For You, a women’s history musical that will now be performed monthly; these funds will go to supply sound equi9pment particularly helpful for this and other theater performances. Avidia Bank also partnered with Amazing Things this past Earth Day to collect gently used instruments to be "recycled" for use by the Framingham High School music program.
 

As a non-profit community center, Amazing Things Arts Center cannot exist without financial support such as what has been generously offered by these three terrific community partners.
