Giving Tuesday - How about the Park Center ?
There are many great organizations to support in our wonderful community - Here is one of them.
Hello friends,
Giving Tuesday is upon us. It’s the time of year when all the organizations you love and cherish ask for your support, and this year we hope we’ve made the list. We’re thankful for every gift.
It’s a day for giving thanks, and we wanted to take a moment to tell you that we're grateful for YOU! None of our work to bring entertainment to Hayward would be possible without you.
As you think about organizations and causes that are important to you on this year’s Giving Tuesday, November 28th, The Park Center would be honored by your consideration to share a tax-deductible gift. Inviting a friend to come to a performance and follow us on socials is another way for all to be counted as supporters of the arts and bringing joy to our community.
The Park is a performing arts center, with the mission of providing joy and
connection in the Hayward area through the enjoyment of the arts.
The Park Center, once a movie theater, is now an all ‘round show place. The Park adds to our surrounding Hayward community by contributing to our social capital and increasing diversity in Hayward. It provides an opportunity to develops skills and community artistic sensibilities for everyone who comes; both local and visiting people. It offers “big city” entertainment in a low key/low mileage local fashion. Our community benefits because live theater promotes a broader world view and increases social empathy. We are offered an opportunity to interact with people from other communities and are provided local human connections.
The Park strives to make the arts accessible to all and does this by offering low-priced student tickets and admission-free “First Thursday” concerts each month and providing youth arts organizations a venue for performance. The Park Center is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization, operated and staffed solely by volunteers.
Your support, partnership, and volunteer time have been the pillars that sustain our organization. We are committed to artistic excellence and integrity, diversity of programming, support for emerging artists, and community outreach.
