ACHF Arts Access
Securing funds to adequately compensate a conductor and accompanist will help further develop the musicianship of our members under the leadership of the conductor and accompanist. Assistance with expenses to attend American Choral Directors Association meeting will encourage attendance and enhance the experience for our conductor. Assistance in paying the rent and insurance will insure that we can continue to use Beaux Arts Ballroom for our spring concert and ice cream social, which we feel is the best venue available at this time. We will try to increase Chorale's compensation (in addition to Legacy funds) for conductor and accompanist based on an increase in revenues. Payment made to conductor and accompanist will be reported and compared to previous year. Chorale will report these outcomes, and will provide a report of contributions and verbal comments received after our concerts, at ice cream social and after Christmas concerts coffee. Conductor will provide receipts for American Choral Directors Association reimbursable expenses.
