HawkMan Studios is proud to help introduce the Articipate campaign of the Shasta Regional Community Foundation.

ARTicipate is a call to action in Shasta and Siskiyou counties to stand for the greater good and vitality of our region by investing in the arts.

Every dollar given to this campaign, up to $150,000, will be matched by The James Irvine Foundation to support the arts today and forever. Through the power of endowment, a gift made to the fund today will continue to grow, allowing grants to be given from the fund to artists and art projects into perpetuity.

Each matching dollar will be used immediately for arts projects in the communities of Shasta and Siskiyou counties.

Give today and take part in a community that believes that art creates legacy … to strengthen our economy, our youth and our local culture. For more information, visit www.shastarcf.org, find Articipate on Facebook and find information about ARTicipate at ArtHop venues.

A News Cafe, founded in Shasta County by Redding, CA journalist Doni Greenberg, is the place for people craving local Northern California news, commentary, food, arts and entertainment.
