Suzanne Fiol Memorial Fund

With a gift of $110, $1,100, or $11,000, you can give life to Suzanne’s dream and carry ISSUE Project Room through to a bright and secure future.

Suzanne Fiol was a remarkable person, artist, and visionary. She dreamed of a place where artists from all walks of life and across all artistic disciplines could gather and share their passion and talents with audiences. Because of her work, ISSUE is home and inspiration to hundred of artists and groups, and offers unparalleled access to groundbreaking art. Suzanne bequeathed to ISSUE and the artists in our community a vital mission and a bright future. It is now our job to honor her by ensuring that the path to the future is secure.

Please commemorate, preserve, and advance Suzanne’s work by making a tax-deductible gift to the Suzanne Fiol Memorial Fund. This fund will provide the secure foundation necessary for ISSUE to continue as a vibrant nexus for emerging and established experimental artists, art, and the audiences who love them.

In November and December 2009, just under 200 people in the community generously contributed to help establish this Fund at $100,000.  Our goal across 2010, is to raise $1,000,000.   This is an ambitious goal, we know, but no one was more optimistic about reaching an ambitious goal than Suzanne.

You can help us reach this important goal.  Please make a donation online in any amount here. Gifts are fully tax-deductible and can also be made by check payable to ISSUE Project Room (with Suzanne Fiol Memorial Fund in the memo section), then mailed to us here. In appreciation of your support, your name will be listed on our website, in our lobby at 232 3rd Street, and at 110 Livingston once renovated.

ISSUE extends heartfelt thanks and gratitude to the following individuals who, as of January 1, 2010 have generously pledged their support:
