Suncoast Performing Arts Foundation Mission Statement:
To support and produce the performing arts at the Largo Cultural Center, making live theater, music
and dance accessible to all residents of Largo and the surrounding Suncoast.
This is an ambitious Mission Statement and you can help us do even more through your personal or business donations, volunteer service and bequests. What can we accomplish together?
• Affordable Programming: Your support helps keep the price of high quality programs reasonable. The Cultural Center is close to home and convenient for families, students, seniors
and visitors.
• Scholarships: You can give a deserving student the opportunity to learn the theatrical
arts and practice teamwork by attending summer camp. SPAF awarded 24 need-based and
talent-based scholarships this summer.
• Children's Productions: You can give local children the opportunity to attend performances geared to them. SPAF invested over $35,000 to underwrite production of the 2012
children’s series which allowed over 7,000 students, teachers, and family members to attend
shows at a reasonable price.
