Season’s Greetings from the Fine Arts Center for the New River Valley!

As we celebrate the holidays and look ahead to 2025, we want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible year we’ve had and express our heartfelt gratitude to all who make our work possible. To our vibrant community of artists, instructors, volunteers, our Board of Directors, donors, supporters, and participants in our classes, events, exhibitions, and programs—thank you so much! Your dedication to the arts transforms lives and strengthens our community in ways beyond measure.

The arts have a profound ability to inspire, connect, and uplift. Whether through music, visual art that sparks creativity, or collaborative projects that build bridges, the power of shared expression brings people together. It is through your continued support and involvement that we’re able to provide these transformative experiences across the New River Valley.

As the year comes to a close, we extend a special thank-you to everyone who has contributed to our End of Year Giving Campaign so far. Your generosity fuels our mission and allows us to reach even more individuals with accessible, high-quality arts programming. If you haven’t yet had the chance to donate, we invite you to join us in making an impact.

Every contribution moves us closer to our end-of-year goal, helping to sustain programs like Creative Club workshops for young artists, the First Fridays Listening Room series, exhibitions for regional talent, and much more. Your tax-deductible gift supports these meaningful initiatives and ensures we can continue to enrich lives through the arts.

From all of us at the Fine Arts Center, we wish you a joyful and restful holiday season filled with creativity and connection. Thank you so much for being a part of our journey!
