1 Update to the School Board April 18 th, 2017 A collaborative project with SAU District 1 Speculative rendering by Catlin + Petrovick Architects PC A 500-seat performance space, with a stage for music, theater, and dance, and exhibit and instructional space for fine and technical arts. In the Void between the gymnasium and classroom wings at ConVal High School The facility will serve school and community: ConVal students and residents of all ages, including performers and artists, educators and audiences. The venue will accommodate local arts organizations, and will attract professional performers from beyond our region. Conceptual plan by Hutter Construction Page 1

2 A vibrant community arts center will enhance cultural life with a high-quality performance space that does not now exist in the region; enrich education through the arts and promote 21st century skills; encourage collaboration between arts, technology, and other disciplines; and promote tourism and economic growth. Contoocook Valley Visual and Performing Arts Center (ConVal VPAC) is a registered NH not-for-profit corporation, with federal 501(c)(3) status. We are governed by a Board of Directors and operating committees and supported by an Advisory Committee. I believe high school students flourish in the discovery and/or enhancement of their artistic abilities. I want as many kids as possible to have the chance to do so. The performing arts can be a lifeline through tough times growing up. In general, American education has been better at supporting student athletes than student artists and Fill the Void offers a way to do it differently. Felicity Pool, Dublin The Contoocook Valley Visual and Performing Arts Center will be a valuable resource for the entire Monadnock Region and will be the stepping stone for many young adults as they pursue their love of the arts. I believe in this mission and want to see it succeed." Carol Nelson, West Peterborough Having had two children who have come through the ConVal Drama Department, I am fully aware that the performing arts space is in serious need of an update. This project is vitally important for ConVal High School students but also for the community at large. Having worked with Children and The Arts Festival for 21 years, I am well aware of the limitations of local performance space and how these limitations hinder offering a first class experience for our community. The arts help make our community vital, and a wonderful visual and performing arts space will help the arts continue to thrive here. Terry Reeves, Director, Children and the Arts Festival Page 2

4 Recent Successes In September, a $20k challenge grant was awarded to ConVal VPAC by the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation s A. Erland and Hazel N. Goyette Memorial Fund. ConVal VPAC met the challenge in December, The funds will help finance architectural and financial feasibility studies. The architectural feasibility study, completed by Hutter Construction in January, 2017, assessed site feasibility and provides preliminary cost estimates and a conceptual plan for the facility. The performance space that you are envisioning is something that can not only serve our school and community, but really also be a draw for tourists, which is an increasingly important part of our local economy. Gordon Peery, Former President Monadnock Center for History and Culture Eleanor Drury, of Drury Associates in Harrisville, NH, is currently conducting the financial feasibility study to determine the level of support for the project among townspeople of the ConVal school district. The results of this feasibility study will determine next steps regarding the commencement of a capital campaign. Fundraising methods have included direct mail campaigns, online donations through the secure website, and participation in Giving Tuesday, a national, one-day, online fundraising event held in November for nonprofits. We have developed a database of over 500 supporters. ConVal VPAC presents special arts and culture events to enrich the community and raise funds for the project. The Black Fly Story Hour, a storytelling fundraiser series first launched by ConVal VPAC in the spring of 2015, has delighted audiences with a number of sold-out performances. Black Fly events are scheduled twice a year, usually in fall and spring. The next Black Fly event will be held on October 27, "So much attention has been given to the athletes over the years. Our playing fields have been upgraded and the gym has been renovated. It is time to give attention to those students, and community groups, that excel in the arts, music and theatre. They deserve a better place to display their talents and I believe that this is the answer." Cyndy Burgess, Sharon "I think that ConVal has a fantastic arts department. We have a great theater program, but the space we're using does limit what we're able to do. The LHT is essentially a lecture hall with curtains. We don't have a full backstage, so that does affect how ambitious we can be with our set designs, because of the size restrictions. We can't fit the full band or chorus in the LHT, so we have to have our concerts in the gym, which is working for the time being, but there's a lot of loading, and unloading, and setting up and having to work around the sports schedules and that gets a little tricky. And the acoustics in there are not really what you'd prefer for a music space to sound like." Ingrid Aho, Class of 17, Sharon Page 4

5 Financial Feasibility and Community Support The Financial Feasibility Study is scheduled to be completed by the end of April, with a report to the VPAC board in May. The interim report to the VPAC board presented key findings to date: The feedback strongly supports the proposed performing arts center initiative as proposed and all supported the benefits of the Center to our students and local economy. At 50% complete: study finds strong community support for the Project but has not yet discovered the leadership giving needed. Remaining interviews will tell us more. 91% Wonderful idea! How Important is ConVal s Excellence to the Region s Health? Will an Arts Center Improve ConVal Excellence? Going Forward Ongoing Activities ConVal VPAC presents special arts and culture events to enrich the community, build recognition of VPAC, and raise funds for the project. Plans in 2017 include: Children and the Arts: a table craft activity focused on theater and story-telling; participation in the parade. An Alumni Revue is planned as a fundraiser for August Efforts are underway to seek ConVal High School alumni who would like to perform musically or exhibit artworks at this event. Plans include a festive reception, a performance, and a celebration afterwards for alumni. Etty play VPAC will sponsor guest artist Susan Stein, playwright, actress, and educator, to perform a play based on the diaries and letters of Etty Hillesum, a holocaust victim. Plans include school performances and interactive classroom discussions, as well as a performance for the general public. October The next Black Fly event will be held on October 27, Final results of Drury Associates study will determine planning for a capital campaign. Page 5

6 Capital Campaign: Research, Design and Management Our future strategy will be driven in part by the results of Eleanor Drury's report. Planning for this phase will begin at a VPAC board retreat in May Drury Associates: Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Complete 40 Feasibility Study interviews Target Completion May 4 Update Summary of Findings and Recommendations Present Final Findings and Discuss Plan with Board With Board approval: Recruit Town "Point People" Develop Prospect List 6-May 15-May 22-May 3-Jun Create "Parlor Party" presentation May 9 - June 3 Development Committee Meeting Monthly thereafter Roll out "Parlor Parties" Develop Solicitation Package Update Web Page Monthly Plan for Fall Black Fly as cultivation Map "Moves" Plan for Lead Prospects Invite Priority Prospects to Black Fly Initiate Leadership Asks Week of June 6th June/July/August June/July/August ongoing August August September Oct-17 Continue Leadership Asks and Messaging Nov/Dec 2017 Open "Community Phase" And Jan - Dec 2018 Spring 2018 Black Fly "I would love to see a theatre built at ConVal. The arts are as important as any of the other subject areas, in my opinion, and as such, there should be adequate performance facilities. In addition, a performance space would enrich life culturally as well as economically, because the arts have proven to be an important economic driver in the Monadnock region." Lisa G. Murray, Temple Next Steps VPAC will continue to move forward as outlined above, and would like to establish quarterly updates to school board meetings, to ensure continuous open communications between both parties regarding the progress of the project. Equally important, VPAC needs to stay updated on plans to upgrade the school. VPAC recommends that potential candidates for principal of the high school value and support arts education, to support STEAM. Amend MOU to bring it into alignment with the project plan dates as outlined above. Page 6
