Hot Spot — the FCC Mascot

Hot Spot Quarterly Report – Spring 2019

The FCC vision is clearer than ever: we are committed “to providing a lively, multi-use, cultural and educational facility that will be a vital catalyst and resource contributing to the quality of life for all in our diverse community and region.”

Please continue to spread the word about the Firehouse Cultural Center! Remember to mention us to your friends and neighbors, and share how they can support arts and education in Southshore.

There are several ways folks can donate: cash, check, credit/debit card or monthly, by becoming a “Sustaining Member.” All the information can be found here.

Perhaps you have a fundraising idea or would like to host a fundraiser? Perhaps you know of a business that would like to sponsor an event? Just give us a call to talk it over! Contact Georgia Vahue, Director, to discuss your thoughts, and to learn about partnership and sponsor opportunities: email hidden; JavaScript is required or 813-645-7651
