Fairfield County Bank has signed on again to become a Platinum Sponsor and Arts in Education supporter of The Ridgefield Playhouse, marking its 20th year supporting the regional performing arts center.
“Fairfield County Bank has been with us since the beginning, when the Ridgefield Playhouse first opened its doors more than 20 years ago,” said Allison Stockel, executive director. “”¦They are a major reason why the playhouse has been able to grow over the years and become the venue it is today”¦.”
“When our Arts in Education series first started, we presented approximately 4-6 shows during the school season,” said Stockel, “but thanks to the support of sponsors like Fairfield County Bank, we have been able to fill a larger need as requests from teachers have grown over the years to add shows that coordinate with their curriculum.”
The bank is also offering online financial education courses, free for all who attend the shows. “We are proud to be a part of and sponsor such an important educational experience for students in our community,” said Fairfield County Bank”™s Marketing Manager Laura Silver.
