Fundraising underway for performing arts centre

Group raising funds for a new performing arts centre in Salmon Arm are asking people to vote daily in an Aviva Insurance funding program.

A group of people are working to build a performing arts centre in Salmon Arm – and they need your help.

“Many of us realize that dance, music, touring groups and large theatrical productions don’t have a great place to perform, so we are starting to raise funds,” says James Bowlby. “We don’t want your money just yet, just your votes.”

Like Hockeyville, the group has become involved in a  community program through Aviva Insurance.

Aviva Insurance gives a total of $1 million to community projects based on votes. Supporters just have to vote once a day from now to Nov. 3 and again from Nov. 20 to Dec. 4.

“We need $100,000 to do initial preparations,” says Bowlby, encouraging community supporters throughout B.C. to register today and get voting – daily.
