Southern Tier Celebrates! regretfully announces it will be closing its office for day to day operations as of April 16 th. STC thanks the Greater Binghamton community and its many corporate and private sponsors for their past support of STC’s programming (First Night Binghamton, Pops in the Arena, Brown Bag, Latin Fest, Arts in Education, Community Art Making).

STC would also like to thank those Southern Tier Foundations who have provided support namely the Conrad & Virginia Klee Foundation, and the Broome County Arts Council/United Cultural Fund. STC thanks the hundreds of volunteers who have generously given their time to make our events possible and the hundreds of artists who have joyously shared their artistry with the southern tier community.

The Board and staff also thanks Broome County, the City of Binghamton, Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo’s office, Senator Tom Libous’ office and U.S Representative Maurice Hinchey’s office for all they have done to support STC these past eight years.

	• Mosaic Mural still happening! Southern Tier Celebrates! is collaborating with Susan Jablon Mosaics to install a beautiful mosaic mural in downtown Binghamton as soon as the weather permits. Email us if you would like to be a part of it!

	We are very glad to report that our annual Brown Bag Lunch Series, in partnership with the City of Binghamton, will continue this year. Funding for this concert series is through public funds from New York State Council on the Arts, administered by the Chenango County Council on the Arts.
