Spring Campaign Review

A working page for reviewing launch readiness across memberships, school workshops, donor events, and the May gallery weekend.

Approve Launch Plan
Membership goal 74%

1,482 renewals confirmed before the early-bird window closes.

School seats 312

Five partner schools still need bus stipends approved.

Donor dinner 89

Confirmed guests against a room target of 120.

Launch risk

All workstreams are active, but the page does not tell reviewers what matters first.

The campaign team needs a quick read on what is ready, what needs a decision, and what can wait. Right now each module is equally loud, so urgency has to be inferred from the copy.

Ready
Email sequence, sponsor acknowledgements, volunteer rota.
Watch
School transport funding, donor dinner seating, print handoff.
Blocked
Final gallery map and accessibility notes for two studios.

Youth workshops

Bus stipends need one finance decision

Program leads have instructors, rooms, and lesson plans ready. The remaining gap is a transportation fund that allows two additional schools to attend the printmaking week.

Donor dinner

Invite list is healthy, seating plan is not

Hosts requested a quieter arrangement for patrons bringing guests from the residency program. The current plan mixes donors, artists, and board members without a clear hosting pattern.

Open studios

Map copy needs accessibility review

The public route is complete, but two studios need alternate-entry notes before the guide can be printed. Volunteers also need the same language for the welcome desk.
