Welcome...
...to the latest edition of the Student Performing Arts Newsletter.
Our Advisory Board members have been hard at work this year
producing the newsletter, working on by-laws and planning some
exciting events. If you are still performing (or would like to),
consider joining us this homecoming for a late night student/alumni
cabaret on Friday, November 6th at the Platt House!
We hope this newsletter is just one way to keep in touch with our
extended family. Feel free to forward to friends, and if you didn't
receive the newsletter directly from us, please let us know at platthouse@pobox.upenn.edu
and we will add you to the mailing list.

Platt House Fundraising Drive
Thanks to those of you who have already given to the Platt
House this year. We sent out over 500 letters and the response
has been terrific, but we haven't hit our goal yet. If you
didn't receive a letter, perhaps we don't have a correct
mailing address for you or we may have missed you — of
course we still need your support!
Our goal is to raise at least $3000 for Platt House
maintenance and programming. This goes towards the sometimes
not-so-glamorous things like piano tuning, the costs of which
have more than quadrupled since we moved into the Platt House;
replacing broken chairs; travel costs for guest speakers; and
some more glamorous things, like our new arts pre-orientation
program, PennArts, which introduces 40 incoming students to the
vast arts opportunities at Penn and the Philadelphia region
for four days before New Student Orientation.
To donate, please visit the Platt
House website and click "Support Our Work". Or mail a
check made out to Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania
to the address listed on our contact
information page.
