A great opportunity for your company to support local development of music and the arts
|
Stone Music and Arts Festival Society are looking for sponsors to support their work in your local community. We are a non-profit making organisation consisting of an independent group of volunteers working throughout the year towards the common goal of promoting and developing music and arts within Stone and the wider community, particularly with young people.
This year, our annual celebration at the street festival takes place on Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th July 2014. Our 2013 festival was attended by over 4,000 people and during the festival weekend we had over 2,000 hits on our website and a total reach of 4,500 on our facebook page. Click play on the showreel (left) to get a flavour of the Stone Music and Arts Festival. |
Our four key objectives are to:
· assist in the development of talent within Stone and the wider community
· encourage performers to visit Stone for the purpose of performance and exhibition
· arrange a free annual music and arts festival within the town
· to raise funds to support the objects of the society
We rely entirely on sponsorship and fund raising to secure the continuation of our objectives and are grateful to have the on-going support of Wedgwood as major sponsors for the past three years. In 2013 we worked in association with ABB, Costa Coffee, Croner Reward, Crown Hotel, Dave Fox Cars, m-viron, Granvilles, James Du Pavey, Little Bit of Stone, Park Hill Beef, Renishaw, Stafford Radio, Stone Local, Tylman of Stone.
