for the development and advancement of youth and the performing arts
in the Greater Metropolitan areas of Madison Wisconsin, Richland Center WI and Rockton IL
| Welcome |
Welcome to the home page of the Madison Youth Performing Arts Foundation! The Madison Youth Performing Arts Foundation actually has three distinct parts. MYPAF itself is fully focused on the Greater Madison, WI area. Richland Rejuvenates is a separate arm that focuses on the Greater Richland Center, WI area. Rockton Rejuvenescence is another branch that focuses on the Greater Rockton, IL area, including Rockford, IL. Our involvement in some of the major music and youth festivals and activities has been extremely fulfilling. It aligns perfectly with our mission of creating performance and fundraising opportunities for youth and performing arts groups in the greater Madison Wisconsin area. Our next event is the Green Machine Charity Basketball game on April 26. Come and see Packer players go head-to-head with local high all-stars. In Madison, Brat Fest 2011 was a great event, allowing us to surpass the $1,000,000 mark in money donated to charity and selling the 3,000,000 brats. 2012 promises to be even bigger and better. Our thanks to the Capital Wealth Advisory Group Foundation for sponsoring the Brat Fest Music Taxis, along with Vetesnik Power Sports. The Capital Wealth Advisory Group also stepped up in 2012 and is sponsoring the MetCafe' stage at Brat Fest. Thank you for your community support. In Richland Center, we played a major role in the July 4 celebration, Thunder In The Hills, launching Caring Karts – Churnin’ Dust, a charity go-kart race. Churnin’ Dust has expanded to the Madison area in 2012 and will be expanding to Rockton in 2013. Caring Karts is happening on June 30, 2012 at Krouskup Park in Richland Center. Join us as a part of the annual July 4 celebration, including fireworks. Smoking Karts comes to Miller and Sons Supermarket in Verona in 2012. On April 21, Miller's is hosting 'Race Cars in the Parking Lot', and will have one of our karts on display inside the store. We will be available from 9:00am until 3:00pm to answer questions about how your company, organization or charity can get involved. Come and join us. Smoking Karts is part of Churnin' Dust - The Series. In 2012, we are bringing the PiTri Challenge to Richland Center, a triathlon featuring pedaling, paddling and running. We will also have a Pie-Athlon for family and friends of the Triathlon. For more details on this, stay tuned to our website. If you would like to help our Foundation do its work, you can get a signed limited edition print of Jeff Koehn's spectacular piece of collectible art titled "Red Zone". Since our Foundation is located in Madison, Wisconsin, art work featuring the UW-Wisconsin Badgers about to score from the 'red zone' is a natural tie-in. (Plus Jeff is a Wisconsin native.) The Office of Trademark Licensing at the UW-Wisconsin Athletic Department has granted us permission to create these prints as a charitable fundraiser. 'Red Zone' is an exciting piece depicting the Wisconsin Badger football team in historic Camp Randall. The sun is setting as the Badgers storm the end zone, capping a memorable day for 88,000 plus loyal Badger Backers. You will want to own this magnificent piece. To learn how you can get your limited edition print, click on Jeff's painting or here 'Red Zone ' . Also, you can now own a signed limited edition print of Jeff Koehn's Madison Magic. 100% of these proceeds go to support our work. Madison Magic prints are available at Milward Farrell Fine Art
or Gary’s Art & Frame
