Thank You, Donors

Annual Appeal

Every worthy endeavor needs to have a firm foundation. Will you help us provide that literal foundation in The Oldfather Theatre and the Archive Room by investing in new carpet for those spaces? New carpet will help the Academy and Performance Companies put their best foot forward as they welcome audiences to their after-school class shows, summer camp shows, and productions throughout the year. New carpet for these spaces will cost approximately $20,000. Each donation makes it a bit easier to replace the carpet as these performers let their light shine. Will you donate $25, $100 or $500 to provide new carpet?
