Thank you for supporting professional live theatre at SLO REP. We could not do what we do without you!
8 great ways to support SLO REP:
- Donate – Your contribution to our Annual Fund supports vibrant, exciting, professional live theatre on our stage and our standards-based Academy of Theatre educational program at our Empleo Street Headquarters. Ticket sales and tuition cover only 60% of our costs – your donation makes the difference!
- Contribute to our Capital Campaign for A New Stage in the Cultural Arts District of downtown SLO! To find out more about how you can play a part in building the future of live theatre on the Central Coast, please click HERE.
- Make a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA Tax-Free to SLO REP. If you are 72 or older, a donation to SLO REP can count as your required minimum distribution from your IRA, and save you money on taxes! (You can read more about QCDs HERE.)
- Leave a Legacy – Help ensure the future of local theatre by including SLO REP in your will or estate plans. If you’ve already made plans for a legacy gift, please let us know! We want to celebrate your foresight now! Contact Patty Thayer at [email protected] for more information.
- Host an Actor or Director in your Home – If you’ve got a spare room or guest house, and would consider sharing your space, please contact Suzy Newman at [email protected] to find out how you can become one of our guest artist hosts.
- Sponsor a Show! Our sponsors are the cornerstone of each and every season here at SLO REP.
