The Morgan Conservatory has been busily renovating our papermaking studios and we are putting the new space to the ultimate test this July — a Morgan Papermaking Marathon with 24 papermakers pulling sheets of paper for 24 hours in 2024!You're invited to the Marathon Pre-Game Party, kicking off Friday July 12th at 4:30pm, and we need cheerers, hand-clappers, cow bell ringers, and sideline coaches to motivate our teams! The party takes a pause at 11pm, but papermaking continues all the way through the night until 5:00pm on Saturday. Join us at the Pre-Game Party with food, drinks, and music, and then help us close out the event on Saturday afternoon and evening, as we hand out awards, trophies, and take team photos starting at 5pm.
The Morgan Papermaking Marathon is a fundraising event where we hope each team can hit a fundraising target of $2400. The Morgan's overall goal is $24,000 (in keeping with our 24 theme). It is a $0 commitment to participate, and we recognize that not everyone has money to give, but we hope you’ll encourage supporters (friends, family, colleagues) to spread the word and promote your participation on social media. Donations of any size help support the Morgan Conservatory!
