Sponsor the Arts in Our Community

Your family or organization can distinguish itself before an appreciative audience. Become a Corporate Sponsor or Foundation Sponsor for an event or series at Auburn Public Theater.

Recognition in our season program, our website, and announcements from the stage will reinforce your message that the arts are a key asset for the greater Auburn community.

Your sponsorship can be tailored to the type of performance you particularly enjoy. Choose from music, theater, comedy, cinema, children’s programming and other rewarding opportunities. You can sponsor a single performance, a multi-day event or a series.

Or, you can extend your sponsorship across the season and support the entire spectrum of programming at Auburn Public Theater. Please ask us for details.

We look forward to talking with you about this meaningful way to contribute to a thriving, connected community. Please contact Carey Eidel, Executive Director, by e-mailing carey@auburnpublictheater.com or phone at 315-253-6669 to explore upcoming opportunities that best fit your giving goals.
