Art is a form of human expression which allows us to foster our culture and to make sense of the world in which we live. Throughout history
the arts have been supported by royalty and other wealthy patrons who recognize that the work of artists and interpreters is an all consuming
full time endeavor. In modern times we are all lucky enough to be able to more fully and immediately participate in the arts. We need not be
wealthy, but rather have a steadfast and sure sense of our duty toward cultural stewardship. Especially now, Loon Lake Live relies less on one
or two super generous 'angel' donors and much much more on support from many donors who commit to ongoing modest gifts. We appreciate each and
every dollar of support, encourage you to give as generously as you can, and invite you to encourage others to do the same.
Many thanks to the following individuals and organizations that support live classical music in the North Country!
For housing and hosting musicians we are very grateful to Robert and Nancy Fierer, and Peter and Lori Lax. If you wonder how you found out
about the concerts it's likely due to the publicity efforts of Nancy Murphy, and our web site designer/maintainer Scott Muller. Great thanks
also to Gene Tweraser for ushering our Saranac Lake concerts. Finally, a thank you to the Loon Lake Jewish Center, Historic Saranac Lake,
and the Saranac Lake Free Library for hosting our concerts.
This series would not be possible without grants from the New York State Council for the Arts and the Arts Council for the Northern Adirondacks,
and most importantly couldn't happen without the generous support of the following individuals:
