STONE MOUNTAIN ART CENTER ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES

Dear Business Owner,

I hope by now you have had an opportunity to visit the Stone Mountain Arts Center. Just down the road, and up the hill in Brownfield we've taken a 200 seat timber frame barn and turned it into a sell out concert hall. National acts have graced the stage and we have an exciting roster coming up for this season. While the center is a spectacular space, there was no predicting how popular it would become. It is one of the hottest destination spots in the Mount Washington Valley right now, drawing tourists from all over New England and beyond on a weekly basis.

With this success we are now offering sponsorship opportunities. We have created various levels of sponsorship packages that are an excellent way for businesses to reach out to a very select and desirable audience. Our shows are selling out weeks, sometimes months, in advance by a very loyal and growing clientele. They are visiting the web and reading our frequent email newsletters on almost a daily basis. Once here they are dining with us and have proven to be a captive and passionate crowd.

Below is an outline of sponsorship levels and and advertising opportunities now available. We hope that there may be something that would work for your business. Also included is a calendar of our dates. Choose one that you connect with and chances are so will your customers!

If you are interested or have any questions please email us at info@stonemountainartscenter.com.

Sincerely,
Carol Noonan and Marlies Ouwinga

Things To Do Listing: $250. for any 6 consecutive months

Most of the people that come to a performance come back. A lot of them plan an overnight stay when they come, others might if they have something else to do in the area.
