The eleventh annual<strong> Local Music Showcase<\/strong> (LMS) is set to take place on Saturday, Sept. 6 at ten participating venues with all proceeds once again going to <strong>Infinity Visual and Performing Arts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLMS is our biggest fundraiser of the year, with 100 percent of the proceeds going to support instruction costs at Infinity,\u201d explains Infinity Executive Director <strong>Shane Hawkins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the fundraiser is even more important than any other year. In October 2014, Infinity plans to begin their new program year in a new, larger location in the ground floor of the <strong>Lynn Building<\/strong>, 301 E. 2nd St., Jamestown, NY. The renovation\u2019s budget for the new Infinity Center is $222,000. Updates and more information about the progress and capital campaign for the renovation project can be found at wwww.Infinity2014.com.<\/p>\n<p>Hawkins adds that each year LMS is only made possible through collaboration between local businesses, musicians and volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis event would not be possible without the support of the local venues, business owners, local musicians, sound technicians and the team of over 60 volunteers that donate their time each year to make this event possible.\u201d Hawkins says. \u201cAll of the ten participating venues this year and many of the performers and volunteers have been strong supporters of LMS every year. It&#8217;s a wonderful community effort to support arts education and local music, and a terrific night of local entertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Because LMS is the program\u2019s single biggest fundraiser of the year, Hawkins says support from the entire community is crucial, especially with repeated and wide spread funding cuts to arts and youth programs the past few years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important that the community understand that much of our program relies on donations and fundraising efforts like this one,\u201d says Hawkins. \u201cCurrently, just .2 percent of our operating budget comes from government-related sources, while nearly ten percent comes from fundraising events like LMS. Attending fundraising events, or supporting Infinity with a tax-deductible donation helps us continue to make this wonderful program and network of mentors available to more of our community\u2019s children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The cost to attend LMS is $10, which will pay for an all-access wristband that allows attendees admittance into any and all participating venues. Pre-sale event tickets can be purchased at Infinity Visual and Performing Arts Center at 115 3rd Street and exchanged for wristbands the evening of the event. Wristbands can also be purchased the evening of the event at participating venues.<\/p>\n<p>Infinity is also seeking volunteers to help out for a couple of hours at various venues. Anyone who volunteers gets a pass for the entire event.
