Casio is now a sponsor of Raue Center of the Arts, located in Crystal Lake, Illinois. The Company gifted its flagship Celviano Grand Hybrid Piano to Raue Center Café and will also sponsor café programming.
“Music has the ability to inspire people in a multitude of ways,” said Stephen Schmidt, vice president of Casio’s Electronic Musical Instrument division. “We are proud to partner with Raue Center and help instill a love of music throughout the community and beyond.”
“This generous sponsorship will provide for countless talents as the cafe programming is a springboard for local artists like Amanda Flahive, Tina Naponelli, Lara Bell and so many more,” says Raue Center executive director, Richard Kuranda. “We encourage the community to join Casio in celebrating the new wave of talent in our community!”
Raue Center Café programming is also sponsored by Piano Trends Music Company, which has worked with Casio to promote music and the performing arts through a variety of projects since the early ’90s.
