Reminder: Save Our Steinway mini concert this Sunday

The Save Our Steinway Committee cordially invites you to a special Piano Program & campaign Progress Report.

 

Sunday, November 16, 2014, 3:00 pm 
Butler Presbyterian Church

301 N. Fulton, Butler, MO

 

Mr. Blair Penney, Piano Specialist with Schmitt Music of Overland Park, KS, will present a performance on the church’s grand piano. Following a mini-concert, Blair will detail the in depth approach used by Steinway & Sons as they carefully disassemble, restore and rebuild the instrument.

 

The Save Our Steinway Committee will present a fundraising campaign progress report and share some exciting news about yet another excellent print article that will be forthcoming in a large circulation publication.

 

Donations of all amounts have poured in and many “Preservation Patron” shares of $100 each have been purchased and several people have chosen to purchase multiple shares.  Every donor who purchases a minimum $100 Share receives an elegant certificate that is keepsake quality.  Letters of receipt for donations are sent from the museum to each donor.

 

Following the presentation, Blair Penney and theSave Our Steinway Committee will be available for questions and conversation as a lovely dessert buffet will be open for guests to enjoy.  This event is free and open to the public.  If you are interested in serving on a variety of sub-committees, please speak with us at the event or call Peggy Buhr at the Bates County Museum (660-679-0134).

 

We do hope you will join us for this lovely afternoon program to learn of the great progress being made toward securing the necessary funds for the full restoration of our 1877 Steinway Model B Grand Piano.
