Spotlighters is excited to offer a new way for you to support the Exceptional, Diverse, Creative & Bold theatre you love by funding
ONE DAY’S OPERATING EXPENSES for the theatre!
JUST $23/Month
funds 1 Day of operations!
Every day Spotlighters has routine and boring expenses: rent, utilities, insurance, copy paper, salaries, cleaning services, voice and internet service, and even pest control. These expenses happen with or without a show on the stage. For the 2023/2024 Season, Spotlighters needs to make $150,000 to pay the bills. After taking out expected income from Ticket Sales and Annual Grants, that is $275 of income per day to keep the doors open.
Spotlighters is asking you to support ONE DAY of the theatre’s operations for just $275.
We encourage those who are able, to fund more than one day, even a week.
For $1,375, you get to select 5 days – one work week!
For $825 you fund a three-day weekend.
Some of you already donate more than $275 a year, and we deeply appreciate your generosity! We also know that some of our patrons and partners are not able to donate at the $275 level ... so, we’re asking that you join with friends and family to give a combined gift that meet the $275 level.
You can give the $275 up front or set up a monthly Sustaining Gift of $23 either from your credit or debit card for an annual gift of $276.
Use the donation to celebrate and recognize a special day - an anniversary, a birthday, a graduation, or create a family/friends day.
All Donors will be recognized with their name or the name of their group on a SPOTS-365 Calendar in the Theatre Lobby.
Visit www.spotlighters.org/partners to make that donation, or set up your monthly sustaining gift.
Help Spotlighters continue to produce outstanding theatre for Baltimore and the surrounding communities.
Join SPOTS-365 today! Thank you.
If you are already a monthly donor, keep and eye on your email for information on claiming your DAY of Funding on the Spotlighters Calendar. And if you wish to increase your monthly or annual gift, please Email: [email protected] and include SPOTS-365 in the subject line! THANKS!
COSTUME / STORAGE ROOM ORGANIZATION & CLEAN UP
Sat, Dec 2, 2023 10AM to 3PM
Sun, Dec 3, 2023 10AM to 3PM
Back in October when we had 3 weeks to cull costumes and make room for all the Wood and Set pieces to get moved into the Costume Room ---- with a LOT of help we got it done!
Well. ... we now need to make some sense of what was rapidly and frantically stored in the Costume Room .... and to be able to access both costumes and set pieces.
SO - we are having TWO Work Days - Dec 2nd and 3rd - 10am to 3pm
Julia Golbey, our Costume Coordinator, will be present to provide some guidance and direction. Rob Books, our Tech Director, will be helping to coordinate the Set Storage.
- We need to move some heavier set pieces and organize flats and platforms so that set pieces can be accessed more easily.
- We have 4 or 5 large bins of hangers that need to be sorted. The black "retail" hangers can be discarded, but the nicer clear plastic clip style will be organized and kept.
- We also need to move racks of costumes from damaged racks to sturdy racks, and also repair some racks.
PLEASE email [email protected] if you can assist on either or both days, and what time you can be here. Thanks so much for your assistance!
