If we’re going to keep raising the bar and create a new beginning for Raven, we need your help.
Every single dollar counts. Right now, $5 means more than $500, because it’s your SUPPORT that means everything to us! If you have a connection to our theatre or just want to see us succeed, consider making a tax-deductible gift.
The new year is approaching! Are you thinking about new things? New habits, new experiences, new goals? Or maybe you’re looking back at the triumphs and tribulations of 2017.
This year marks Raven Theatre’s 35th Anniversary Season, and to celebrate, we’re not just looking back, we’re thinking ahead. We have an amazing lineup of plays set for this year, and with a new Artistic Director at the helm, we’ve got a lot to be excited about.
We know we don’t have to “sell” you on the value of theatre, but here’s a surprising fact for you: the greatest single source of income at Raven isn’t ticket sales. It’s generosity. Tickets make up only 35% of our total revenue, but the support of people and organizations who care about the arts as much as you do account for half of our budget. That’s why your gift is so important.
Your support makes theatre happen and brings arts education into classrooms. You help put actors onstage, put props in their hands, and allow them to create. We couldn’t do this without you! You can click here to make a donation – truly, no amount is too small.
Looking back, it’s both encouraging and humbling to see how much you value Raven Theatre. Thinking ahead, we want to continue to bring you even more of the best of modern drama in Chicago.
