For many years,Tybee Arts Association has served as vital part of the community, helping further Tybee Island as an art haven. During this time,we have presented many successful theatre productions such as"The Wizard of Oz", "South Pacific", `Blythe Spirit" and "Sordid Lives",just to name a few. Additionally,we have created and maintained art shows and sales, providing a viable outlet for local artists and members. Tybee Arts also offers a variety of classes throughout the year for residents, members and the many visitors to our island. Our firehouse, being a part of historical Fort Screven, demands constant upkeep. We are working diligently to maintain and improve this iconic building, not just for the benefit our members and visitors, but also for the city of Tybee. Major capital improvements are slated for the 2015 calendar year. Once again,we humbly request that Tybee Arts be seriously considered during the upcoming discussion related to disbursement of the hotel/motel tax. Sharing in these funds would aid our association as we continue current programming for the community, add additional classes and art shows, such as "Arts in the Park, 2015", and continue the capital improvements on our beloved firehouse.
