We Met Our Match!
Fundraising Goal a Reality - We are thrilled to announce that the Petaluma Arts Council has raised $500,000 to meet our $1 million two-for-one challenge grant! Many, many thanks go to the scores of individuals and businesses who generously contributed to this goal, which we accomplished in only two years. We cannot thank our patron, Kristina Flanagan, enough for her once-in-a-lifetime matching gift, which helped build and will help sustain our lovely new Arts Center. Without Kristina's abundant gift, we simply wouldn't have such a beautiful center for arts and culture in the heart of Petaluma.
It's Just the Beginning - Our challenge grant enabled us to be where we are today. Now begins the day-to-day work of sustaining our programs and operations into the future. If you have not done so already, please consider a donation to the Petaluma Arts Center. Your gift will help fund classes, exhibitions, special performances and other arts events. Donating is as easy as a few clicks on the button below.
In the Fall of 2005 a preliminary planning study was completed by AMS Planning & Research and presented to the public on October 5, 2005.
