NWAA Launches ACTIVE FOR THE ARTS

Active for the Arts is an initiative which allows artists, members, family and others to utilize their athletic abilities and interests to raise awareness and funds to support the creative activities of the New Wilmington Art Association and its members. Active for the Arts promotes an active lifestyle and an investment in the health of the cultural community.

RUN / BIKE / CLIMB / PLAY
Participating is simple. Just do what you already love to do. Tell people about your goals and have them support your efforts - in the studio, on the trail, the field! Learn about the many ways you can be Active for the Arts and how you can obtain activity-specific attire by contacting the NWAA @ new.wilmington.art@gmail.com



MICHAEL KALMBACH at the DELAWARE DIAMONDMAN TRIATHALON


Many members of the Wilmington & Philadelphia communities had the opportunity to swing at his best fastball in the streets of Wilmington during the May exhibition, The Rules for Staying Young. Over 3 hours and 250+ pitches later, he was still "dealing" to local youths as the streetlights on Market Street began to buzz in the fading evening light. Yet again, Michael Kalmbach is pushing his body to the limit with the arts in his heart.

Launching Active for the Arts, NWAA Director Michael Kalmbach will be competing in the Delaware DiamondMan Triathalon in Bear, De - Sunday September 12th, 2010.

An active Wilmington hockey player, Michael will swim 0.6 miles, bike 16.0 miles and run 2.0 miles in a rigorous personal effort to raise funds and awareness for the NWAA and its members.

The NWAA is currently accepting donations in any amount through Active for the Arts to sponsor Mr. Kalmbach at the Delaware DiamondMan Triathalon. All sponsorship directly contributes to continuing the activities of the New Wilmington Art Association (NWAA).
