Support performing, visual arts through TAP
Annual membership as a Tiger Arts Patron is $75 per family and includes admission to most performances.
Have you ever been inspired by a USN performance? Do you enjoy amazing student artwork adorning USN hallways? Have you observed the joy in young children's eyes as they see their older counterparts engage in exciting artistic endeavors? If your answer to any of the above questions is "yes," you need to join Tiger Arts Patrons. TAP is USN's version of a booster club for students in the arts.
This year, your TAP membership will be better than ever. Everyone in your immediate household will enjoy:
Free admission to all music, dance, and theater performances on and off-campus, excluding Student Theatre Guild performances.
There’s even more. As a TAP family, you’ll also receive:
- a convenient, printable TAP card,
- recognition of your support on the TAP Community Group page, and
- knowing your contribution is making a meaningful difference within our community.
Just what will we do with your $75 donation for this great benefit? We TAPsters provide a community for our performers, helping to sustain and enhance exciting extra-curricular programming. TAP contributes additional funding to USN's arts and supports faculty by facilitating the acquisition of special items that may not fit into the yearly budget.
Membership is open to anyone interested in supporting USN's performing arts, including alumni, grandparents, and others in the greater Nashville community. TAP encourages you to join our community even if your children invest their talents in different pursuits. Our TAP Community Group page on the USN intranet is always a dynamic place for the latest behind the scenes information. After logging in www.usn.org, click "Groups" in the top gray bar to join.)
Please join us today. It’s easy to register at www.usn.org/tap. Or you can contact TAP parent volunteers:
