On the Road with UMS is our annual dinner and auction with proceeds benefiting the UMS Education & Community Engagement Program. Learning is core to UMS’s mission, and it is our joy to provide creative learning experiences for our entire community. Each season, we offer a spectrum of free or low-cost education and community engagement activities focusing on K-12 students, teachers, teens, university students, families, adults, and cultural communities. We exist to create a spark in people, young and old alike, to expose them to new artists, ideas, and cultures, and leave them with an ongoing and lifelong passion for creativity and the performing arts. Funds raised from On the Road with UMS make it possible for UMS to impact nearly 20,000 youth, educators, and community members throughout the year.

Welcome to On the Road with UMS 2012! On behalf of the On the Road with UMS Steering Committee, we are thrilled that you have joined us for a fun evening celebrating a cause near and dear to our hearts: performing arts education and community engagement.

Preparations for tonight took months of planning and creative work. This year’s Steering Committee planned a terrific event. All of what you see, hear, and taste at On the Road with UMS is due to the collaborative efforts of the UMS Advisory Committee, UMS Board and Senate members, and UMS staff, all of whom shared their talents, time, and resources. We also send a special shout-out to this year’s On the Road with UMS sponsors, corporate donors, in-kind contributors, and community partners. An event of this caliber cannot happen without your support. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We hope you enjoy this evening filled with good company, fabulous food, and musical entertainment, topped off withauction and raffle opportunities. It is the perfect way to support the UMS mission while having fun.

Thank you all for supporting On the Road with UMS.

—Audrey and Paul SchwimmerOn the Road with UMS Chairs
