Social Responsibility

Creative Community

At AMP, we're part of a creative community--and not just inside our four walls. We're lucky enough to be located near Dallas's Arts District, home to the Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas Museum of Art, the Meyerson Symphony Center, the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts, the Winspear Opera House, and the award-winning Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts--otherwise know as Arts Magnet. To nurture our creative community, AMP supports the Mentoring Program at Arts Magnet. AMP employees have the opportunity to teach master classes in the arts of our industry and/or be paired with a high school junior or senior who needs support in applying for college--whether that's choosing schools to pursue, writing essays, tracking down grants and scholarships, or just having a caring adult who helps them progress through the complexities of the application process. And Abernethy Media Professionals, Inc. has also pledged to help cover traveling expenses for seniors to visit potential colleges. 

Environment

We are taking steps to ensure that we leave our planet greener and cleaner for future generations. Some steps are small: office employees drink filtered water from glasses instead of consuming bottled water, cutting down on plastic waste; switching to post-consumer recycled paper. Some require more commitment: we've partnered with Recycle Revolution to reduce our landfill waste by 60% and use Green Mountain energy so that our electricity is from non-polluting resources. We’ve replaced all the fluorescent light fixtures in our building with new, high-efficiency fixtures. We have also moved to a tapeless workflow, which means that all those BetaSP and DVCam tapes are replaced by digital files-which consumes zero space in our landfills.
