I am writing you today about a very important issue regarding the quality of future shows presented by the Center for the Arts.  As with most modern stage productions, the Center for the Arts has been making extensive use of wireless microphone technology to enhance the theatrical experience for our audience members.  Clarity of the spoken word is an important part of the high production values we bring to each performance. These wireless systems are prohibitively expensive to rent and are very difficult to acquire by borrowing as we have had to do whenever possible.

As many of you know, in order to upgrade our shows, we must purchase these microphones. In order to make this purchase, it will be necessary to raise these funds. In order to do this, WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!  Each fully equipped wireless microphone set costs in excess of $500.00.  With 10 microphones to purchase, we will need to raise significant funds. To meet this need, I have established the “Center for the Arts Wireless Microphone Fund” and would sincerely appreciate your Tax Deductible Donation of $25, $50, $100 or more to help purchase the necessary equipment. Please send a check made payable to “Center for the Arts” with the notation “Microphone Fund” in the memo field and send to:

Center for the Arts
110 W. College Street
Murfreesboro, TN 37130

Note that we accept Corporate Donations and Sponsorships, and be sure to ask your employer if they have a Charitable Donation Matching Program.

Given the current economic climate making a donation of any amount is cause for careful consideration.  Together, we have built a successful program that instills confidence, poise and a sense of community in our cast members.  I hope I can count on your support to continue this tradition.

If you have any questions or would like more information on how to donate, please contact me at 615-904-2787 or tony@boroarts.org.

Sincerely and with great appreciation,

Anthony Cimino
