Jackie Bogner, Board of Directors
As we were leaving last week’s performance of “Hairspray”, friends told me that it was the best show theyhad ever seen at the Lied Center. What an endorsement! And as I find myself bursting out in song with “Good Morning Baltimore” or tapping my steering wheel to “You Can’t Stop the Beat”, I have to agree that it was a special evening of song and dance.

I ask you to join the Friends of the Lied to support the future of performing arts in our community. It’s easy to become a Friend of the Lied.

You can click here to donate securely online to the Friends of the Lied.

You can make your tax-deductible gift by downloading our membership form and mailing a check made out to Friends of the Lied/ KUEA.

In order to offer these community opportunities, the Lied Center relies on the charitable contributions the Friends of the Lied provides. Ticket sales only account for 40% of the funds necessary to present the world-class performances and education programs you can see at the Lied Center. Gifts from the Friends of the Lied contribute another 12% - or more- towards the overall costs.

I am proud to be a Friend of the Lied, and I encourage you to join me in supporting performing arts in our community. I hope to see you again at the Lied Center soon.

Sincerely,
Jackie Bogner
Friends of the Lied Board Member
