Medway Friends of the Performing Arts seeks volunteers

Medway Friends of the Performing Arts’ mission is to promote excellence and broaden student participation in the Medway Public Schools K-12 music and theater programs. We work with administrators, teachers, parents, students, and community members to determine how to support the non-budget needs of music classes, performing ensembles, musicals, and the Medway Community Education private lesson program.
MFPA was pleased to fund over $6,000.00 of needs in 2017-2018, including financial aid for private lesson program students, donations to high school and middle school musicals, bus transportation for two MHS music department trips, a new drum set for the middle school, makeup kits for the middle school musical, two snare drums for Memorial School, and iPad storage and apps for Memorial School music classes. Each year we also host a reception for Tri-M Society inductees, provide volunteers to help teachers with events, and produce a free Community Concert. We are looking forward to another successful year supporting students and programs.
MFPA is always in need of new members and volunteers at any level, from volunteering at an event, to contributing ideas or planning an event, to serving as a board member or officer. If you would like to help, feel free to send us an email or join us at any meeting.
Meetings are held September through June on the second Tuesday of each month at 7:30 pm in the Alumni Conference Room at Medway High School. They are a great place to meet other music and theater parents and guardians, share ideas, and celebrate successes.

MFPA annual campaign continues
The MFPA has had a busy year thus far with several opportunities to support the music curriculum and extracurricular activities for the performing arts at the Medway Public School System.
The ask this year is much more substantial as we embark on trying to fulfill important needs at the Medway High School Auditorium, including a performance grade grand or baby grand piano, additional risers for our choral student performances, and acoustic shells to better the overall sound of the performances that take place in this space.
To help us reach our goal of $20,000, please fill out the form at https://bit.ly/3JuwZZ9. Donations of any amount can be made by cash, check, or Venmo @Medwayfriendsofperformingarts
