Help thank the cast & crew of "Studio 60" and lend support to Tipitina's Foundation.
So art got its ass kicked. Say "Goodbye" to a great show by supporting New Orleans' music culture.
A group of us thought it would be a nice idea to somehow say a public “Thank You” to Aaron and the team for bringing us Studio 60.
To this end, we’d like to place an advertisement in the LA Times Entertainment Section on Thursday 28th June, which is when the final episode is due to air. The quarter-page ad will cost approximately $5,000.
The text on the advert will be simple - just a thank you, nothing nasty aimed at NBC (no matter how much we’d like to! - we don’t want to come across as honey-crusted nut bars!), and will also feature details of how to donate to Tipitina’s Foundation.
For anyone unfamiliar with Tipitina’s, the Foundation was featured in The Christmas Show. The mission of the Tipitina's Foundation is to restore New Orleans' irreplaceable music community and preserve the state's unique musical culture. We are currently working with the Foundation to create a specific page on their site where friends of Studio 60 will be able to make donations. More information about this will be coming soon.
In order to buy the advertising space, we need your help. Anything you can afford to help raise funds for the ad will be greatly appreciated.
We’ve set up a PayPal account and it’s simple to use.
We’ve created a new community - thanks2studio60, simply to monitor fundraising and report on progress. We’ll be posting updates and information plus details as to how you can make a donation to Tipitina’s Foundation over there - and hopefully, as soon as it’s ready, you’ll be able to see a copy of the advertisement we intend to run, which is being designed by the fabulous coloneljack as I write.
This community is NOT the place to discuss Studio 60 episodes or take pot-shots at NBC.
So please do come and join us - help us to say thanks to Aaron and the team, and raise some money for a good cause.
