Happy New Year from… You

Posted by Nina on December 27, 2011

Thank you to Rachael Torres, Mitch Margo, and my dad Scott for making this video… and thanks to all the visitors, members, artists, and friends whose enthusiasm and energy are on display. It’s been a great year for the MAH and we’ve loved having you here.

Here are a few of the statistics we’re proud of this year at the MAH:

  • attendance is up 57% compared to 2010
  • new membership sales are up by 27% compared to 2010
  • individual and corporate giving is up over 500% compared to 2010
  • we have stabilized our operations with a $100,000 reserve and seven consecutive months in the black
  • we’re expanding our impact through new partnerships with the Second Harvest Food Bank, the Homeless Service Center, the Santa Cruz County Office of Education, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Downtown Association
Thank you for making it happen with your participation, membership, and donations. Hugs to everyone, and happy new year.
