CONTRIBUTE TO THE ENDOWMENT FUND
In order to ensure an enduring legacy of fine music in the Placitas community,
PAS created an endowment fund, which is now securely maintained and
managed by the Albuquerque Community Foundation.
Remember, also, that many companies match gifts to charitable organizations,
and that PAS is a qualified organization for such matching, as well as for tax-free
distributions from qualified investment funds. Choose the endowment fund option
from the drop-down menu. There is an opportunity to designate your donation in
memoriam. On the second page of the checkout process, click on the “+” symbol
next to ‘Write a note’, and type your designation into the pop-up text box.

Placitas Artists Series is a volunteer-supported organization, with an active
board of directors, and a group of dedicated volunteers. Volunteers provide
support to concerts and art exhibits, serve as ushers at concerts, work in
committee to choose future performances, support art exhibits and exhibit
hangings, assist with fundraising, set up special events, and so much more.
Board members serve as organization leadership in the areas of musical
programming, visual arts, publicity and marketing, house management,
information technology, and the executive functions of president, vice
president, secretary and treasurer.
We are always seeking volunteers across all lines of service. If you are
interested, see a board member during a concert, or send an email to
info@placitasarts.org. Thank you for considering service to our organization
to help us continue to bring quality music and art to the foothills of Placitas.
