Brunswick Arts Council Seeks
Sponsors, Volunteers for
Charles Dickens Christmas Festival
The Brunswick Arts Council is seeking sponsors and volunteers for our upcoming CHARLES DICKENS CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL. The CHARLES DICKENS CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL event will take place on Friday, November 30 and Saturday, December 1, 2012, in the city of Southport, NC.
The purpose of the CHARLES DICKENS CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL is to promote arts and culture; attract customers to local businesses and arts venues; and to create community goodwill while partnering with Brunswick County art organizations. A variety of different events will be held in the two days, including: a kick-off parade, a Christmas tree lighting, band and choir concerts, costume contests, literary readings, performances by local theater troupes, the Ocean Ridge Singers, etc. The plays “What the Dickens” and “The First Noelle” will also be performed. Many merchants in Southport will be decorating their shops and dressing in period style.
The event was unanimously approved by the Board of Aldermen of Southport, as well as by the Winterfest committee, of which the
CHARLES DICKENS CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL will be considered a “kick-off” event.
Tickets will sell for $10.00 for adults, $5.00 for children 7-12, and free for children 6 and under. Groups of 20 or more will receive a 5% discount.
Sponsorships will have several levels, ranging from $50.00 to $5,000.00.
For information of becoming a volunteer or a sponsor, contact us at artsinbc@gmail.com, or call 910.371.2641. You can also "like" the festival on Facebook to keep up with current news.
