HOW TO SUPPORT THE ARTS AT APT

For 38 years, APT has been a community-based organization that believes in the performing arts as an essential part of a healthy community and economy. The economic impacts of the ongoing public health crisis have potentially long-reaching implications for all nonprofit organizations, but particularly for performing arts organizations like Arkansas Public Theatre who rely on the generosity of our friends and neighbors in the community.

If you have the means, we ask you to consider making a contribution to the APT General Fund to support us as we continue to explore ways to stay engaged with you and our community during this difficult time. Any amount would help and would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your continued commitment to nonprofit performing arts and recognition of their importance to the quality of life of Northwest Arkansas.

Did you know that you can give beyond the price of your ticket? Yes! Each ticket sale directly contributes to each of our eight productions every season, as well as any amount over your ticket price. As a Friend of APT, you become part of our mission. Your generous donation gives life to APT. A typical production budget consists of costuming, hair, makeup and props, paint, set construction materials and royalties. YOU directly affect each production. The needs of production and theater operations are many, and in-kind product donations are welcome. The APT Theater Manager can detail all of our needs and coordinate receipts. Arkansas Public Theatre is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.

Title Partnerships start at $3,500 and go up to $5,000, and every dollar you provide directly supports the production. Individual donors and thousands of audience members share in the experience of live theater.

GIVE TIME
Annually, more than 700 volunteers, including over 150 community performers, have propelled APT to be recognized as one of the three top live theaters. APT relies on the many front of house volunteers, actors, set builders and support staff who contribute their gifts of wisdom and work freely.
