You now have an opportunity to sponsor an area classroom for the Instant Arts Classroom Program through Arts Quincy. With many schools cutting back funding for arts programs, the need is there for area students. The program, through donations and sponsorship's, provides materials and opportunities in the Arts for students who otherwise would not have that chance.

For the fourth straight year, Arts Quincy has seen double-digit growth in requests for funds from local teachers! It is Arts Quincy’s goal to fund 100% of qualified requests to bring art, music, theater and history to our schools, so they are asking for your help!

Arts Quincy must raise an additional $10,000 to fund the 2018-2019 Instant Arts requests. There is no better time than now to make that donation as a generous anonymous donor has agreed to match all donations through November 15th to make that happen! So your donation actually doubles your impact and helps bring the arts to area public, private and county schools in Adams County!

A $150 donation will sponsor an arts experience including transportation and supplies for up to 30 kids, but all donation amounts are appreciated.  Any individual or business that sponsors an entire classroom for $150 will also receive recognition in an upcoming issue of AQ Magazine.

Donors can choose to donate to a specific classroom or school when they donate $150 or more. Donations of other amounts will be applied to the general classroom funds for all schools.

Homebank is the Major sponsor for the Instant Arts Classroom Funds project. For more information or to donate, go to www.ArtsQuincy.org.
