Why Be a Sponsor?
July 2012
In case you didn’t know…OFT is thrilled to be inhabiting our own “Playspace” in downtown Olympia at 112 State Ave NE, just off of Capitol Way! If you haven’t had a chance to stop in, please do- we’d love to see you. Our colorful new home is host to rehearsals, camps, meetings, and even small performances. We are confident that our move, and all of our programs are bringing more and more families downtown- which is good for the local economy.
Our success depends on the generosity of our business donors- people like you! Please contact Samantha Chandler, Managing Director, to sign up, or if you have any questions. E-mail: samchan@olyft.org, or call us at the Playspace: 360-570-1638.
With your financial support OFT continues to serve our mission of making theater accessible by:
- Keeping ticket prices affordable
- Providing “Thrifty Thursdays” where all tickets are $5.
- Offering a Complimentary Ticket Program that puts 250 tickets each year in to the hands of folks who might not otherwise be able to see live theater.
- Providing scholarships for kids who might otherwise be unable to participate in our week-long theater camps or youth productions.
The beginning of season seven has us excited to be producing two world premier adaptations. We are also growing our daytime performances in conjunction with our school touring program to provide even more youth with access to the riches and variety of live theater. Our continued, measured growth can only occur with the essential backing of our friends in the Olympia business community. We thank you in advance for becoming an OFT sponsor, or for continuing your generosity by renewing your sponsorship. We hope to see you at the theater!
