Where: Flatbread Pizza at
Sacco's Bowl Haven
45 Day Street
Davis Square, Somerville

Why: Support the Arts in Medford!
Flatbread Pizza/Sacco’s Bowl Haven and The Medford Arts Council are pleased to
announce an evening of good food, bowling, and an opportunity to take home original art and community gifts.
These will include items from the Tufts University Community Music Program, Jannabee’s Bakery, Whole Foods Market, Flatbread Pizza, tickets to museums and events, and original artworks by local artists. The proceeds, along with a portion of total pizza sales (including take-out) from the evening, will go to support local arts and cultural programming in Medford through the Medford Arts Council's annual grant program.
*All* proceeds will directly benefit Medford Arts Council grant recipients. In past years these beneficiaries have included:
Medford Public Schools
Medford Family Network
West Medford Open Studios
Medford Public Library Community Read and School Vacation Performances
Medford Senior Citizens Inc./MCOA
Saving Lives Summer Concerts
Handel & Hayden Outreach in Schools
Dance in the Fells
Medford Boys and Girls Club
Medford Historical Society
CACHE in Medford
Royall House
Medford Office of Human Diversity
+ other organizations and too many individual artists and performers to list here!
(check out our past 5 years of grantees here)
The restaurant will accept call-ahead seating and bowling lane reservations. This is strongly urged, especially for groups of 10 or more. (617) 776-0552
Join us for a night of fun, or call in for take-out, and help increase the amount and quality of arts and cultural programming in Medford in 2012!

Great idea. I'm looking forward to it.
Isn't it odd that this event is being held in Somerville?
We like our neighboring towns and cities! While the events and programs that we fund are in Medford, we welcome audiences from further abroad as well. Think of the Somerville location for the fundraiser as outreach. :-)
Also, the pizza at Flatbread is really tasty.
We would love some suggestions for Medford Community fund-raising venues.
