The 24th annual Melbourne Art Festival invites you to become a 2008 Patron of the Arts. Its hard to believe it is time again to join in supporting your community by becoming a Patron for this very worthwhile event. Your Patron involvement is the single most important factor in assuring that this highly rated show continues to be available not only to yourself but to everyone in our community. Because of your past support, the Melbourne Art Festival has been rated in the top 100 shows in the nation for eleven consecutive years with the 2003 show ranked 24th!!! It is the generous purchases by our Art Festival Patrons that ensure the continued and growing involvement of quality artists each year. The 2008 Melbourne Art Festival will be April 26th and 27th on the streets of historic downtown Melbourne. The Patron Cocktail Party will start at 7:00 p.m., Thursday, April 24th. An invitation with further information will be sent two weeks prior to the event. *As with any successful program, the interest in this Patron Program has grown. In order to provide a quality program for our Patrons, we are limiting the number this year. Applications will be accepted on a first-received basis. Once the limit of Patrons is achieved, no more applications will be accepted. Please don’t delay and get your application and payment in quickly. Please complete and return the attached form with your payment, postmarked no later than Friday, March 7th, 2008 in order to get this package for $325.00 (*although not guaranteed if the limit has already been achieved as discussed above). Deadline to become a Patron is March 28th if limit as not been met. (See registration form for further details). Sincerely, Nancy Ritter / Kathy Turner |
