Beck Center Nears Halfway Fundraiser Mark, Still Needs $150,000 By End Of April

Beck Center for the Arts is grateful to the City of Lakewood for its announcement yesterday to commit to long-term investment in the organization. Stories about the City's contribution have raised questions from the public about the status of our current fundraising campaign.
We have an immediate need to raise $150,000 by the end of April for operational support. To date, approximately $75,000 has been raised toward that short-term goal. The Beck Center is still encouraging its friends and supporters to continue to help in this time of crisis.

The City of Lakewood's commitment of energy efficiency project funding and debt restructuring helps our long-term capitalization goal, which is $600,000 by the end of November. The Beck Center Board of Directors is committed to a capitalization plan to ensure our long-term financial stability. The announcement from the City of Lakewood is the lead gift and a strong show of support for this long-term campaign.

One of the region's largest arts organizations, Beck Center for the Arts is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization that offers professional theater productions on two stages, arts education programming in dance, music, theater, visual arts, early childhood, and creative arts therapies for special needs students, and gallery exhibits featuring local and regional artists.
