#SCPA4LIFE

Welcome to the Kick-Off of the 2022 NAAcSCPA Membership Drive!

The following is a letter from Lynn Frederick Hawley (nee Frederick), Class of 1989, Co-Chair, Development Committee of The National Alumni Association of the Cincinnati School for Creative & Performing Arts.

 

Welcome to the Kick-Off of the
2022 NAAcSCPA Membership Drive!

Fellow SCPA Alumni,

Whenever a new school year approaches, I tend to think of the etched-in memories of my Falls at SCPA…the smell of warm tar in the school parking lot as I walked to the front door on Sycamore, the wide open windows of the dance studios and the sounds of instruments getting warmed up in the distance, the nerdy joy of fresh notebooks and the ubiquitous blue multi-color pen. It is amazing how indelible those and endless other memories are to so many of us!


New students will be launching into their own memory making soon, and those that have recently graduated are diving into the adult world to build on all they learned and experienced in their time at SCPA. Remember how exciting and yet scary that all was? Maybe you had an SCPA alumnus at your new college to help give you a hand and show you the stage. Perhaps you kept some SCPA friends who were important touchstones while you navigated the larger spaces outside of our school.

How can we make sure that is available to ALL alumni?

As alumni, we have a unique ability to be there for others now that we have gained our own experience and post-SCPA lives while holding the SCPA time in our heads and hearts. How better to be an active supporter of these new and future alums than by being a member of the National Alumni Association of the Cincinnati School for Creative & Performing Arts (NAAcSCPA)?

The NAAcSCPA exists entirely to help bring support to all alumni in myriad ways and maintain connections between those of us with this shared experience no matter where in the world we landed, what we are doing professionally, personally or academically, or where the “road rose to meet us”.

We are a school family that is 50 years in the making – will you help us be as strong for each other now and for another 50 by being an official Alumni member?

Your membership supports:

  • Our ability to offer scholarships to graduating seniors pursuing the arts and non-arts focused higher education.

  • Our ability to provide mentorship opportunities to students and new graduates

  • Networking activities for alumni that help us stay connected and give each other a leg up

  • Alumni Activities to support SCPA and its current students

  • The acknowledgement of alumni and their wide range of achievements!

I firmly believe that our Alumni Association can be a powerful instrument for all of us – whether you just graduated in May 2022 or were graduates of that first class in 1979! However, we need YOU as a Member to reach all of our goals together. I hope you will use the link below to become a member or to renew a membership that has lapsed. Thank you in advance!

In Solidarity,
Lynn Frederick Hawley (nee Frederick)
Class of 1989

Co-Chair, Development Committee.

Help support SCPA by purchasing tickets to our Sock Hop Gala, November 10th, at Sugar n’ Spice in OTR.

Relive the magic of the 50’s wearing your favorite fashions from the era, posing for pictures with the hot rods of the day, dining on burgers, fries and milkshakes all while moving to the rock and roll sounds of the era.

The Rydell High yellow bus will depart from your reserved spot in the SCPA race street parking lot to the event at Sugar n’ Spice. (OR you can meet us there – 1203 Sycamore St) When it’s time to depart for the show, climb back on the bus to get back to school on time!

Support SCPA productions by purchasing ads or sending notes to your favorite cast member in our souvenir program booklet.

Various donor-level packets get you and your crew many other fabulous perks, including dinner with Cast members and a picture in the one and only Grease Lightning on the Corbett Stage.

You won’t want to miss the Grease Sock Hop and Show!

Tickets: $200 includes ticket price to show with orchestra level seats, souvenir program, souvenir gift bag, signed Grease poster by the cast and crew, reserved parking, dinner and loads of fun! Support SCPA and our main stage productions series.
