Yes! This is the season of giving to those less fortunate! We are sharing the Facebook post from the EventHampton Account. The group covers happenings, history & more on the eastern end of Long Island, NY known as "The Hamptons."
Read what they had to say about Phoebe Legere's arts education nonprofit Foundation for New American Art: (it's easy to donate and no amount is too small!)
Phoebe is one of our favorite artists and musicians and we've been fortunate to have her here for many seasons holding court at Bobby Van's, Stephen Talkhouse and fabulous events, parties and happenings.
Phoebe recognized a dire need to provide arts education programs to children living in low-income, underserved communities. Public schools in these districts suffer from having very low or absolutely no budgets for art/music/dance & theater curriculum.
Phoebe Legere’s FNAA provides after-school programs, creates and hosts festivals, concerts, and community gatherings, offers free music and art classes, invites caregivers and grandfamilies to participate in creative arts sessions, and offers a haven for children who have no opportunities to express their artistic selves.
Originally formed as the New York Underground Museum, a place to archive and showcase the works of both recognized and unrecognized artists of the community, the organization evolved into the Foundation for New American Art to offer much-needed cultural equity to children and families with little or no access to the Arts.
We are happy to be making a donation to support the wonderful programs of Phoebe's FNAA, and want to add that no amount is too small. Please give what you can to this noteworthy and much needed nonprofit organization. All donations are 100% tax deductible. https://www.paypal.com/donate/...
The Foundation for New American Art offers the promise that neglected neighborhoods can achieve a considerable degree of much needed cultural equity.
