How to become a Five-Year Pillar of the Arts

How will the capital campaign funds be used?

Raise the Curtain Pillar of the Arts donations will be used only toward our long-term building fund. This may include long-term lease rentals, building purchases, necessary building enhancements or upgrades required by town officials, attorney or professional fees required to close transactions, and any other expense required to purchase or obtain a long-term lease and create our occupancy at that location.

It will not be used for BTC shows, salaries, stipends, or other current operating expenses.  Donors who do not subscribe to the five-year Pillar of the Arts campaign will be recognized as annual patrons.  A portion of the annual patrons' fund will go toward our operating expenses. 

If you have any questions, please contact Bob Dumont at BrewsterTheaterInfo@gmail.com or

Become a Five Year Pillar of the Arts

Brewster Theater has purchased
69 Gleneida Avenue in Carmel!

We are in the process of Town approvals to convert the space to a theater. Your help and donations are needed!

Pillar of the Arts Donors

​​

We have dreamed as big as we could possibly imagine!

We have worked impossibly hard to bring inspiring,

thoughtful and even breath taking shows!

We have the support of our theater community,

patrons and audience members!

After 25 years of being a theater in everyone else's home - we purchased 69 Gleneida Avenue in the heart of Carmel!

We need to raise an estimated $150,000 for renovations.  Your generosity has provided over $200,000 that was used in the down payment and closing costs of this new and exciting space!

  Our next miracle is to work with the Town of Carmel to get all the approvals needed to convert the space to a theater.  As a group of part-time theater lovers who work at this nights, weekends and every spare minute - you might imagine how difficult this will be.   

Your contributions have brought us this far and we hope you have a little more to give!  Tell a friend.  Tell a relative. Tell everyone how this small band of volunteers has built a theater community second to none and is ready to create a permanent theater!

Every small amount can bring a new theater into our community that will be here for decades to come!

​

We welcome your one-time donation or

The Pillar of the Arts commitment would be the total amount you want to donate over the five years. Brewster Theater would bill you in annual installments.  You would submit a non-binding document that indicates your pledge for the total amount.  A copy of the agreement is below.

Five-year commitments would be recognized in our playbill at the full five-year amount pledged. Each level has different benefits, but most importantly, reaching our goal would allow our theater to produce shows for decades to come. Your commitment to our theater for five years provides the capital needed to plan, build, and grow.

All funds raised through the five-year Pillar of the Arts program will be used solely for our capital campaign. For annual donations will have a portion be used for our current expenditures. 

• To become a Five-Year Pillar of the Arts simply make your initial donation.
• Email BrewsterTheaterInfo@gmail.com with the subject of "Five Year Pillar."
• We will send you the non-binding agreement and then contact you on the anniversary of your donation.
