Why I'm Going Over the Edge for the Flynn

Welcome to my fundraising page! 

I am really excited (and very nervous!) to Go Over the Edge for the Flynn.  As part of the Cider Mill Neighborhood Team, I will rappel nine stories down the side of the Courtyard Marriott in Burlington on Saturday, August 31!

This event directly supports the Flynn’s efforts to nurture and expand the minds of our community’s children. So many of us have enjoyed a memorable show at the Flynn, but most of us are unaware of the incredible work going on with the Student Matinee Series, FlynnArts classes and the Flynn Youth Theater Company. Over 1/3 of the Flynn’s annual $7.5 million budget goes to education!  The Flynn is helping to bring the joy of live performance to so many children, and I feel that this opportunity to rappel in support of the Flynn not only helps me raise some well-deserved financial support for their education programs, but it also helps me spread awareness that the Flynn is a non-profit organization and relies on community support.

If you would like to contribute to this very worthwhile cause, please click on the donate button below and search for my name.  I'll know what time we are scheduled to "go over" as the event gets closer so if you'd like to come cheer us on, that would be great!

Thanks!

Lori

 

Help me reach my goal and support the cultural and education programs at the Flynn Center for the Performing Arts!

Flynn Arts

  • Last Fall, 240 students attended weekly dance, music and theater classes and over $6,500 was awarded in scholarships to students. It is exciting to see the variety of workshops and classes being offered. There is truly something for all ages.

Student Matinee Series

  • A series of 30+ per year matinees serve approximately 38,000 children per year in grades PreK-12 from within a 120-mile radius. 
  • Support of the matinees allows ticket prices to be at the lowest accessible access point and to offer free tickets to those students with high need. Last year, 7,100 students attended for free!
  • Support also allows the Flynn  to reach out to rural and underserved schools, providing tickets and bussing support, thereby equalizing access for students from communities that have fewer opportunities to experience the arts.

Flynn Youth Theater Company

  • Talented teens from across the state gather at the Flynn to produce high-quality theatrical productions under a professional team of artist-educators.
  • Over the course of several weeks, they build new skills, exercise their strengths, stretch their limits, and develop close friendships with peers who are passionate in similar ways!
  • Many graduates from the program have gone on to study in the top college, university, and conservatory theater programs around the country, and to pursue professional careers as performers.
