FORUM LSC GALLERY 111 CLASSICAL COMMITTEE FUNDRAISING EFFORTS |
|
Gallery 111 was established as a standing committee of Forum (Skinner's PTO) in 2003. We were responsible for Skinner receiving an Urban Gateways Cultural Enrichment Program Grants: an empowerment grant that provides $48,000 of arts programming for $24,000. We were one of only 16 schools to receive this grant. We are also one of 26 Chicago Public Schools chosen to participate in the Improving Academic Achievement through the Arts program. These grants have allowed us to provide much needed programming in which performing and visual arts are viewed from various cultural perspectives. Our students and teaches have already had artists-in-residence and cultural performances at the school. We look forward to upcoming programming to spur the creativity of our students, faculty, and parents. Mission... We strive to improve the physical space of Skinner School and engage a broader community into the planning of the arts program. Gallery 111 was founded in Fall, 2003, as a Forum committee, dedicated to promoting, planning, and helping to facilitate programming in the arts (visual arts, performing arts, and literary arts) at Mark T. Skinner Classical School. Gallery 111 generally meets once per month, usually on the 3rd Thursday
of the month. Meeting notices are sent out via e-mail, about 2 weeks prior
to each meeting.
