Norwell Arts is an inclusive, parent-led nonprofit organization that supports the growth of art, theater, and music programs at Norwell Public Schools through education, dynamic fundraising, and community engagement.
Specifically, this year, we are focused on:
Securing funds to support the growth of NHS art, theater, and music programs.
Building school and community support of NHS performances, exhibits, and events.
Providing college scholarships to three NHS graduates continuing in the arts.
-
Norwell Arts is made up of parents and family members of Norwell students and alumni, and is advised by the arts faculty and administrative staff. Primary contacts for Norwell Arts email at NorwellArts02061@gmail.com
-
We raise funds primarily through our yearly PLAYBILL for NHS performances and arts events. Local businesses and individual friends who love the arts sponsor it. Professionals make the PLAYBILL look great to give a shout-out to our generous supporters. It's handed out at over 30 NHS cultural events each year so everyone can see and appreciate the people who help us out.
-
The money we collect from the PLAYBILL supports our art, music, and theater programs. In the past, we've used these funds to buy a new bari saxophone for the NHS Jazz Ensemble, a pottery wheel for the art department, and display cases for the NHS Community Room. Recently, Norwell Arts supported the sound system and microphones for Norwell High School's production of The Addams Family. Also, every year, three NHS graduates passionate about the arts receive a $1,000 scholarship from Norwell Arts to keep pursuing their creative dreams.
-
We have a strong membership who helps share information about upcoming events and meetings through social media, email and in person. In addition to articles and announcements in the schools we also post notices around Norwell and at arts-related facilities in local towns promoting the upcoming events.
