Make a Meaningful Difference — It's Giving Tuesday

Dear friends and supporters of Arts on the Ave,

Black Friday and Cyber Monday have passed, but the year's biggest deal awaits you! After a weekend of shopping indulgences, #GivingTuesday is a day to give back and support the causes YOU believe in. This year, find true value by donating to Arts on the Ave charity. Not only will you be supporting the local arts and entertainment that enrich you and your family, but also the equity, health, safety, and vibrancy of Edmonton's core communities.

How does it work? Art has the ability to transcend cultural boundaries and act as a strong binding force that unites people no matter where they are from. That ability is only possible when art is accessible to everyone. With your donation, you are helping us create safer places with creative spaces. By bringing art and beauty to Alberta Avenue, Arts on the Ave supports local artists and encourages positive activity and engagement among residents, business owners, and visitors. This year, we focused on food security, neighbourhood safety, and community arts through our projects: Families Helping Families, Green Alleys, Kaleido Family Arts Festival, Deep Freeze Byzantine Winter Festival, The Carrot Community Arts Coffeehouse, and more!

In honour of Giving Tuesday, we think we're a good choice! Make your dollar go a little further this giving season and donate to Arts on the Ave registered charity with a one-time donation or monthly to provide ongoing support for our programming and many other amazing projects. If there was ever a day to make a contribution to our small charity, it’s today! Your generous donations, volunteerism, and the sharing of our story are helping to regain life, connectivity, and joy in the Alberta Avenue District.

Arts on the Ave Edmonton Society is a registered charity, and we would be pleased to offer a tax receipt for your donation. Thanks for being a difference-maker!
