Dear Friends and Patrons of Studio Mid-Del:

Thanks to the generosity of the Midwest City Memorial Hospital Authority, Studio Mid-Del recently received a grant in the amount of $250,000 towards the completion of our new building. This was a wonderful shot in the arm; but still leaves us $600,000 short of the amount needed. We are currently conducting a capital campaign to try to raise the remaining amount. If you can help, please let us know. Your contribution is fully tax-deductible as Studio Mid-Del is a 501 ( c) (3) tax-exempt organization! Everybody’s contribution is needed and appreciated. Please give so the arts may continue to thrive in Eastern Oklahoma County!

We are grateful to all of you who have taken our classes, offered words of encouragement, and have generously given from your hearts over these past seven years. We, the members of the Board of Directors are strongly committed to completing this project in 2007---as part of Oklahoma's 100th birthday celebration. We share this official centennial project with you with our sincere thanks and appreciation!

Sincerely,

The Studio Mid-Del Board of Directors
