Letter from the BOD President:

Dear members and friends,
The River's Edge Board of Directors and Staff have been busy planning a bunch of events for the fall season and beyond! Our CAO Debra has been out on the streets networking with a variety of businesses and organizations looking for opportunities to expand the arts in the area. We are rolling out several new events and programs in the coming months that I am really excited about. Read on for details.
We also kicked off our Fall membership campaign earlier this month. The membership fees we collect are what help us to keep our doors open and support the organization. Members get discounts to most of our programs and events. Local businesses also offer discounts to our members. Please consider becoming a member today!
Thank you for all that you do to help us achieve our mission: "To enrich lives and create community through the arts". I hope to see you at a future event!
Warm Regards,
