Our Mission Race for the Arts is a nonprofit organization that raises funds, increases awareness and helps build audiences for California nonprofit performing, cultural, and visual arts organizations and for school music, drama, and art programs. Race for the Arts 2010 Join us as Race for the Arts celebrates its 12th Year! If you enjoy theatre, dance, art — if you enjoy exercise, Race for the Arts is for you. Be entertained by costumed characters, music, art, dance, and interactive booths. This is your opportunity to support your favorite arts organization and/or school program. Run or walk and raise funds for any California nonprofit visual, performing and cultural arts organizations or school music, drama and art programs. 100% of pledge monies benefit your designated organization. Pledges are not a requirement of the Race, but they're a great way to raise awareness and funds for your organization and school program. Donations/Pledge Forms It is through pledged donations that organizations and schools benefit. On April 12 you will be able to download a Pledge Form from this site. Please make as many copies as you need for members of your organization. TIP: You can obtain pledges through websites, newsletters, board meetings, incentives, teams, families, friends, co-workers, and challenges. The donation program is optional and supplemental to the event entry fee. Pledge monies may be turned in the day of the race, or pledge forms and donations may be mailed by September 24 to: Race for the Arts, Fleet Feet Event Management, 2311 J Street, Sacramento, CA 95816. Please make checks payable to "Race for the Arts." Be sure to designate the organization or school you want your donations to benefit. Contributions not earmarked for a specific organization or school, are directed to the Race for the Arts Endowment Fund. Merchandise and/or gift certificates will be sent to those submitting $500 or more in donations. Prizes will be sent 10 to 12 weeks after the event, based on total donations received by September 25, 2010. Available soon will be a downloadable flyer that you can personalize for your organization or school to help advertise the event and your pledge drive.
