Basque Educational Organization Survey
We have received the following message from the Basque Educational Organization (BEO) who is conducting a survey to see how they can improve their support of the arts. Please read their message and help them out by taking their survey.
The Basque Educational Organization (BEO) is currently conducting a survey to explore the opportunities and challenges we have in our endeavor to support the arts (including, but not limited to: visual, literary, performing, and culinary arts). We are interested in hearing from everyone - supporters, artists, and aspiring artists. Completing this should not take any more than 10-15 minutes… and the deadline is this Saturday, October 10th at 12:00 p.m. (PST). Some of you may identify as both an artist and a supporter, for example; please feel free to fill in the questionnaire twice, once in each category (e.g. artist and supporter) - the questions / experience is different for each category. Please also share this with your households. The more feedback we get the better. We would LOVE to hear from everyone! Thank you, in advance, for taking the time to complete this. Your 10-15 minutes will mean everything to us. To respond to the survey, please click here. |
Txoko Ona Clubhouse Expansion
The Txoko Ona Basque Club in Homedale, Idaho has recently revealed its new expanded clubhouse. The renovations were recently featured in an article on EuskalKultura.eus, where images of the improvements are also provided. The idea behind these improvements was not just to improve the experience of Basque club members attending activities there, but other entities that rent the facility were also taken into consideration. Zorionak Txoko Ona!
