Join us in our Capital Campaign to secure and build an expanded Arts Centre for our growing youth and arts community! Our frequent need to seek out larger performance spaces, double cast shows, and fill a gap left by the closing of Pheasant Run (our only midsize theatre in town), has created a need for a community arts centre that has led to our vision to expand our footprint and make room for our ever-growing arts community. Every contribution gets us closer to ensuring that we can open our new studio doors by Spring 2024. The resounding echoes of thousands of youth that have filled our walls and hearts with light since 2011 have propelled us to this moment. We invite you to join us in Marquee Youth Stage's exciting new chapter! Together, let's ignite the path to a brighter, thought-provoking future of storytelling that breaks through stereotypes and noise--a path that will unite and inspire our community for generations to come. 

Calling Changemakers for our  It’s Time! Campaign Effort: 

Act 1: Be their Light!

• Help us reach 100% of our goal to close on our building by the end of 2023. This is an ambitious goal, but we know that our community is hungry for this change and so are our greater friends of the arts! If you are an Arts Partner, supporter or business check out THIS LINK to find out more about how to become a Partner or Sponsor, and email [email protected] to become a Partner. All contributions acquired at this time will go directly to our closing costs for our new facility. 
• Contribute as a Changemaker by making a donation, or take a leading role by creating a team and inspiring others to donate through your personalized message as a Marquee Changemaker so that you can reach your social networks and share your Marquee story while you help us get to Act 2! Donors will be showered with endless gratitude, personal thank you's, swag bags; and top donors will gain recognition on our printed Changemaker t-shirts!

Act 2: Be the Change!

• Join us in reaching the goal of an additional $200,000 to build out our new facility (scheduled to be ready for use late Spring 2024). Every dollar amount counts to help us start construction and complete our dream location allowing for more youth to engage in our programming, more community members to be involved, and more impact in youth-centered arts programming for generations to come.

• Sponsorship levels for Act 2 are described HERE on the donation page. For those interested in Legacy Sponsorship levels of giving, please contact Connie Flores directly at [email protected]

Act 3: Launch the Legacy…

• Join our celebrations and performances throughout the summer to continue refining our new space and engaging the community. We look forward to meeting our campaign goal and diving into Act 3 with innovative programming, additional resources, and celebrating the arts with our community for generations to come!
